model-usage

model-usage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from nclamvn/openclawvn. It costs 69 tokens per session (563 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of model-usage, MIT.

A command-line tool that summarizes local CodexBar cost records by AI model for Codex or Claude.

In plain words
What is it for?
Show the current most-used model, produce a breakdown for all models, read data from CodexBar, a JSON file, or standard input, and output JSON summaries.
Why use it?
It makes model-specific usage and cost information easier to inspect than raw cost data.

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

model-usage 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/model_usage.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Model usage

Overview

Get per-model usage cost from CodexBar's local cost logs. Supports "current model" (most recent daily entry) or "all models" summaries for Codex or Claude.

TODO: add Linux CLI support guidance once CodexBar CLI install path is documented for Linux.

Quick start

  1. Fetch cost JSON via CodexBar CLI or pass a JSON file.
  2. Use the bundled script to summarize by model.
python {baseDir}/scripts/model_usage.py --provider codex --mode current
python {baseDir}/scripts/model_usage.py --provider codex --mode all
python {baseDir}/scripts/model_usage.py --provider claude --mode all --format json --pretty

Current model logic

  • Uses the most recent daily row with modelBreakdowns.
  • Picks the model with the highest cost in that row.
  • Falls back to the last entry in modelsUsed when breakdowns are missing.
  • Override with --model <name> when you need a specific model.

Inputs

  • Default: runs codexbar cost --format json --provider <codex|claude>.
  • File or stdin:
codexbar cost --provider codex --format json > /tmp/cost.json
python {baseDir}/scripts/model_usage.py --input /tmp/cost.json --mode all
cat /tmp/cost.json | python {baseDir}/scripts/model_usage.py --input - --mode current

Output

  • Text (default) or JSON (--format json --pretty).
  • Values are cost-only per model; tokens are not split by model in CodexBar output.

References

  • Read references/codexbar-cli.md for CLI flags and cost JSON fields.
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
