The token
What claude setup-token does.
It is one command in Anthropic's Claude CLI (a free download). It signs you in through your browser and prints a long-lived token. codeMeter uses that token to read your usage. You do it once per Claude account.
The pairing page at encinitas3d.com/codemeter turns the token into a QR code in your browser, so you can scan it from the device's setup page instead of pasting. Nothing is uploaded.

FAQ
Questions.
Do I need the Claude CLI?
Yes, once per Claude account, to run claude setup-token. It is a free download from Anthropic. After that the device runs on its own.
Is the token sent to you?
No. You paste it over the device's own local Wi-Fi, and the pairing page builds its QR in your browser. The token is stored on the device only.
The screen says Claude login expired. What now?
Hold B about 7 seconds (an orange screen appears at 5 seconds, keep holding) and paste a fresh token from claude setup-token. Your Wi-Fi and names are kept.
Which Wi-Fi does it need?
2.4 GHz with a WPA2 password. It does not join 5 GHz-only or WPA3-only networks.
