Nine-Balance Widget

Nine AI provider balances in one desktop widget — live balance/usage and quota reads, token-based spend estimates with off-peak price windows, drop alerts, and an anime mascot per provider with rotating flavour lines (DeepSeek, MiniMax, GLM, Kimi, MiMo, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok). Fully English UI. Desktop-only: desktop/plugin.js inside the plugin SDK surface; no agent tools, hooks, middleware or env vars. Keys are entered in the widget's settings page and stored in plugin-scoped storage; the widget only calls those providers' official APIs. Ported from MeteorNOX/DeepSeek-Balance-Whale-Widget (MIT).

Good to know before installing

API keys you enter in the widget's settings are stored in plaintext in Desktop plugin storage (not Hermes' secret store); while the widget is on, the Desktop renderer polls the balance/usage endpoint of the provider matching your current model every 60 s with that provider's key (api.deepseek.com, api.minimaxi.com / api.minimax.io, open.bigmodel.cn / api.z.ai, api.moonshot.cn / api.moonshot.ai, api.kimi.com, token-plan-cn.xiaomimimo.com, api.openai.com, api.anthropic.com, generativelanguage.googleapis.com with the key in the URL, api.x.ai); each key goes only to its own provider; draws a floating widget over the app window.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install nine-balance-widget
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable nine-balance-widget
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
