Once the download has finished, open the application on your Windows computer. The pet will appear on your desktop. That is all you need to do to begin — there are no complicated setup screens, no commands to type, and no accounts to configure before you can see your pet.
If Windows shows a security prompt asking whether you want to run the app, choose the option to run it. This is a standard Windows message that appears for many downloaded applications.
A desktop pet is a small animated character that lives on top of your normal desktop. It stays out of your way while you work, but you can click it whenever you want information. Think of it as a friendly little companion that also happens to be a helpful status display.
The pet in dsh-plugin-simple-pet is designed around one purpose: showing you your AI usage at a glance. Instead of logging into billing pages or hunting through subscription settings, you glance at your pet, click it, and immediately understand where your spending and quotas stand.
dsh-plugin-simple-pet brings several everyday conveniences together in one small app.
DeepSeek billing visibility. The app shows your DeepSeek billing information in a clear, readable panel. You can see how much you have spent and how your balance is trending over time, without opening a browser tab.
Codex subscription quotas. If you use Codex, the app tracks your subscription quotas and displays them as easy-to-read progress indicators. You will always know how much of your quota remains before you hit a limit.
Token usage tracking. Usage is recorded in a way that is easy to understand. You see totals, recent activity, and daily changes rather than raw numbers with no context.
Opt-in automatic Codex warm-up. This is an optional feature that prepares Codex in the background so your first request of the day feels faster. It is switched off until you turn it on yourself, and you can switch it off again at any time.
Six skins. You can change your pet’s appearance whenever you like. The app ships with six distinct looks, so you can match the pet to your desktop style or simply rotate it when you want a change.
Usage charts. Charts turn your numbers into a picture. You can spot busy days, quiet days, and long-term patterns at a glance.
The six included skins are one of the most enjoyable parts of the app. To change your pet’s appearance, open the pet’s menu and look for the appearance or skin option. You will see thumbnails for each available look. Select the one you prefer and the pet updates immediately.
There is no wrong choice, and nothing is permanent. If you change your mind, simply return to the same menu and pick another skin. Your selection is remembered the next time you open the app, so your pet will look the way you left it.
Different skins are also handy if you use the pet on more than one monitor or machine — you can give each one a distinct look so you always know which is which.
The charts are built for people who do not want to think too hard about data. Each chart focuses on one simple question:
Open the dashboard from your pet’s menu to see the charts. Daily values are shown clearly, and longer periods are broken down so trends are easy to spot. If a day looks unusually high, you can often connect it to a long session or an automated process you left running.
Hovering or clicking on a chart element reveals the exact figure behind it, so you never have to guess what a bar or a line represents.
The automatic Codex warm-up feature is entirely optional. It exists to reduce the small delay that can happen when Codex has been idle for a while.
Because it runs in the background, it is switched off by default. When you are ready, open the settings area of the app and enable the warm-up option. From then on, the app will quietly prepare Codex for you according to your preference.
If you would rather keep background activity to a minimum, simply leave the option switched off. Nothing else in the app depends on it. You can enable or disable it as often as you like, and the change takes effect right away.
Your pet is meant to be visible but not intrusive. It stays above your wallpaper while you work. You can drag it to a different corner of the screen if it is covering something you need to see.
If you need a completely clear screen for a presentation or a screen recording, you can hide the pet temporarily from its menu and bring it back whenever you are ready.
The app remembers where you placed your pet, so you will not have to reposition it every time you start your computer. Your skin choice and display preferences are also remembered.
Newer versions are posted on the same releases page you used to download the app. To update, visit this link to download the application again and open the newest version. Your settings and your pet’s appearance are preserved between updates, so you will not lose your configuration.
It is a good idea to check the releases page occasionally, especially if you notice that something in your dashboard looks out of date.
The pet does not appear after I open the app. Give it a few seconds to start, then check whether it is hiding behind other windows or has been moved to the edge of the screen. Restarting the app usually brings it back.
The dashboard shows no data yet. Usage information needs a little time to be collected and displayed. Use the app normally for a short while and check again.
The charts look empty. Make sure the date range in the dashboard covers a period when you were actually using the service you are tracking. Switching the range often reveals the missing data.
The pet is covering something I need. Drag the pet to another corner, or hide it from the menu until you are finished with your task.
My skin choice did not stick. Choose the skin again and confirm the selection before closing the menu. The app saves your choice when you confirm it.
dsh-plugin-simple-pet is designed to display information, not to collect it. The automatic warm-up feature is opt-in precisely so that nothing happens in the background without your knowledge. You control which features are active and can switch them off at any time.
If something is not working as described, the releases page is the best place to start. Check whether a newer version is available, since many small issues are fixed in updates. If the problem continues, open an issue on the repository page and describe what you see, including what you expected to happen instead.
dsh-plugin-simple-pet gives your Windows desktop a friendly pet that also serves as a clear, always-available view of your DeepSeek billing, Codex subscription quotas, and token usage charts. With six skins and optional automatic Codex warm-up, it stays useful without getting in your way.
