#### Floating desktop widget to monitor AI API spend

A lightweight always-on-top GTK4 desktop widget for Ubuntu that shows
your OpenRouter API spend at a glance.

After installing, configure your API key:

snap set token-watcher api-key="sk-or-..."

Optional: change the refresh interval (default 60 seconds):

snap set token-watcher refresh-interval=30

Then launch:

token-watcher

The widget floats above all windows. Drag it anywhere on screen.
Double-click to force an immediate refresh. Right-click for options.
