What happened
There was a service with an open source self hosted version on HN the other day where I could sell or donate my left over tokens for my claude code subscription to the person/company running it. What was that again? I'm looking on angolia (hn search) and I cant find it! I'll have some left over subscription tokens...
Why it matters
The post suggests some Claude Code subscribers want a way to move unused usage to others rather than let it lapse. Anyone considering a similar service should check the details of the project, since the post itself gives no information on how it works, pricing, or whether the provider permits such transfers. Whether a named project appears in the replies will show if the idea is an established tool or only a passing mention.
