ccusage-daily

A command instruction that runs ccusage daily with billing details, then summarizes Claude Code usage costs and token statistics in a structured report. Claude Code is a coding assistant whose model usage can be measured this way.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a period of Claude Code usage, including totals, averages, peak days, and a model-by-model breakdown.
Why use it?
It turns raw usage output into consistent cost, model, token, cache, and daily summaries.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 493 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ccusage-daily scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Please run the ccusage daily -b command and then provide a structured markdown summary of the Claude Code usage costs and statistics.

Required Actions:

  1. Execute ccusage daily -b using the Bash tool
  2. Parse the output to extract key metrics and statistics
  3. Generate a comprehensive markdown report

Report Format Required:

Executive Summary

  • Total cost for the period
  • Date range covered
  • Number of usage days
  • Average daily cost for sonnet
  • Average daily cost for opus
  • Average daily cost for sonnet + opus
  • Peak usage day and cost for sonnet
  • Peak usage day and cost for opus
  • Peak usage day and cost for sonnet + opus
  • Cache efficiency percentage

Key Statistics Table

A markdown table with usage broken down by model and model totals:

  • Total Tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Input Tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Output Tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Cache Read Tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Total Cost
  • Average Daily Cost

Daily Cost Summary Table

A compact markdown table showing:

  • Date (in MM-DD format)
  • Model used
  • Input tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Output tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Cache read tokens (in millions i.e. 1,234,567 reported as 1.2345 m)
  • Total cost for that day

Limit to the top 15-20 highest cost days to keep the table manageable.

Usage Insights

Provide analysis including:

  • Number of high usage days (over $20)
  • Cache effectiveness assessment
  • Token distribution breakdown
  • Primary model identification
  • Usage patterns and trends

Recommendations

Based on the data, provide:

  • Cost management insights
  • Cache optimization observations
  • Usage pattern analysis

Please format everything in clean, readable markdown with proper tables and bullet points. Focus on actionable insights and clear presentation of the cost and usage data.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

ccusage-daily is a command published in the GitHub repository centminmod/my-claude-code-setup (2,614 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 493 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
