Ward is a Mac app for developers who use Claude Code and Codex CLI. It organizes their configuration, scans MCP servers for poisoning, shows the context-window budget and sessions, and puts usage in the menu bar.
Built with Tauri 2 and Rust, it is MIT licensed and ships as a universal DMG on GitHub Releases. It is a clean-room reimplementation inspired by an MIT-licensed project, and it ports one algorithm from ccusage.
