Menu bar stops useless refreshes on unrelated file changes

Your menu bar will no longer inexplicably re-render its layout due to unrelated file changes. Previously, when the system listened in the background, it watched the entire data directory, meaning any agent writing to an unrelated status file would cause the menu bar to foolishly trigger a full visual refresh. Now, it strictly watches only the specific directories where Claude and Codex save their usage history, and if the status title hasn't actually changed, it won't waste effort re-rendering the layout. It's like a security guard who used to trigger a building-wide alarm every time they saw movement inside, but now strictly watches the front door and only sounds the alarm when someone actually enters or leaves.

**Idle menu-bar refreshes no longer react to unrelated agent state writes**: FSEvents now watches Claude and Codex usage-history directories instead of their entire data roots, and unchanged status titles no longer trigger redundant AppKit layout work.
