task-token-usage

task-token-usage is a skill for Claude Code from platonai/Browser4. It costs 41 tokens per session (718 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A reporting skill that reads Claude Code session records and draft task files to calculate token usage by task. Tokens are the text units used to measure an AI session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list recent or all tasks, group usage summaries, compare sessions, or view detailed per-session counts.
Why use it?
It replaces manual inspection of session logs when you need to understand usage, costs, or task efficiency.

About the project

Browser4 is an AI-native browser engine that lets autonomous agents and people control real browsers, extract information from web pages, and automate tasks at scale. It combines browser interaction through a Rust CLI and MCP with deterministic selectors, machine-learning clustering, and language-model extraction. The catalogue entries provide skills and instructions for using Browser4.

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

task-token-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/list-tasks.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.

Task Token Usage

Analyzes Claude Code conversation traces to report token consumption per task.

When to Use

  • "list tasks with token usage"
  • "show me token usage for each task"
  • "how many tokens did task X use?"
  • "what tasks ran in the last N hours?"
  • "compare token usage across tasks"

How It Works

  1. Scans ~/.claude/projects/<project>/ for JSONL session traces
  2. Extracts input_tokens, output_tokens, cache_read_input_tokens from each assistant message
  3. Optionally matches sessions to draft task files in coworker/tasks/issues/draft/
  4. Prints a summary table grouped by task

Usage

Run the bundled script:

python3 coworker/skills/task-token-usage/scripts/list-tasks.py [OPTIONS]

Options

Flag Description
--recent N Only show sessions from last N hours (default: 24)
-d, --detail Per-session breakdown instead of grouped summary
-a, --all Show all sessions (no time filter)

Examples

# Summary of last 12 hours
python3 coworker/skills/task-token-usage/scripts/list-tasks.py --recent 12

# Detailed per-session view for all time
python3 coworker/skills/task-token-usage/scripts/list-tasks.py --all --detail

# Default: last 24 hours, grouped summary
python3 coworker/skills/task-token-usage/scripts/list-tasks.py

Output Columns (Summary Mode)

Column Description
Task Task name (matched from draft files or first step description)
Runs Number of evaluation sessions for this task
In Tok Total input tokens across all runs
Out Tok Total output tokens across all runs
Cache Total cache-read + cache-creation tokens
TOTAL Sum of all tokens
Avg/run Average total tokens per run

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.
