I'd like to request that, alongside the existing proposal for an Assistant API, Kagi also provides a dedicated endpoint returning Assistant usage (Fair Use remaining balance) as JSON.
The current usage indicator only appears as an in-app notification within the Kagi web UI, making it inaccessible to external tools.
I'd also love to see this offered as a Kagi-maintained Firefox extension — similar to the existing Kagi Translate Extension, which already states "No tracking, no data collection."
I explicitly do not want a Chrome extension. Chrome is built by Google and tracks everything. Firefox and Orion (which runs Firefox extensions natively) are the right platforms for privacy-conscious users.
Kagi already has a Firefox add-on presence with Kagi Translate. A companion extension showing Assistant usage would be a natural extension of that ecosystem.

Orion/Firefox users will benefit from improved visual clarity regarding the balance between Kagi Assistant usage and their subscription thresholds within the GUI.
