I think I’m done with Raycast - hidden token costs?

I noticed an increase in my OpenAI API spending and compared an older and a newer version of Raycast.

I used the same custom AI Chat preset with identical instructions and submitted the same text three times in each version. Each version had a fresh API key used only for this comparison.

The OpenAI dashboard showed:

  • Older version: $0.02
  • Newer version: $0.13

That’s approximately 6.5× higher spending, based on the displayed amounts.

Raycast’s documentation mentions server-side prompt processing and additional context in AI Chat. However, I haven’t found an explanation for this difference in a simple, repeated task.

I don’t know the cause yet. Can the Raycast team explain what might account for the increase, and how users can inspect the full token usage of a request?

Has anyone else noticed something similar? Unexpected API costs like this make me reconsider using Raycast.

Raindrop Bookmark Sync (Chrome/Firefox)

Hello guys.

I made a small extension that keeps your browser bookmarks and your Raindrop.io collections in sync - automatically, in both directions. It works on Firefox and Chrome.

The idea is simple: you map a bookmark folder to a Raindrop collection, and the whole subtree stays mirrored. Add, edit, move, rename, or delete on either side, and the change propagates to the other side.

What it does:

  • Two-way sync - changes in the browser get pushed to Raindrop, and changes in Raindrop get pulled back into the browser.
  • Folder mapping - you pick exactly which folders sync with which collections.
  • Nested folders - full support for hierarchies. New subfolders become collections, new child collections become subfolders.
  • Two-way rename & delete - renaming/deleting a folder or collection on one side updates the other. Deletions cascade, and deleted bookmarks go to Raindrop’s Trash so you can restore them.
  • Real-time - bookmark changes sync within about a second.
  • Periodic sync - a configurable interval (1 - 60 min) pulls in any changes to Raindrop.
  • Conflict resolution - Raindrop is the source of truth. If the same item changed on both sides, the Raindrop version wins.

Privacy: Everything is stored locally on your device. The extension only talks to the Raindrop.io API and collects no personal data.

Setup takes a minute: paste your Raindrop Test Token (Settings → Integrations), map a folder to a collection, done.

It’s free, open-source (MIT), and the code is on GitHub. Would love feedback and feature ideas.
