What is new in Claude Usage 0.4.1

### Changed
- **Bar colors follow percentages again.** 0.4.0 colored usage bars by the server's `severity`, but the server reports "normal" well past 50% (observed at 67%), so the yellow/red warnings effectively never showed. Bars are back to the local thresholds: green below 50%, yellow from 50%, red from 80%.

**Install/upgrade:** `brew upgrade --cask claude-usage` (after the cask bump lands), or grab the notarized zip below.
