OpenUsage.sh: terminal-first local quota and usage tracking for Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Copilot, and OpenRouter.
Install · Providers · Config · Keybindings · Development
OpenUsage is the terminal-first local dashboard published at openusage.sh. Publicly, the clearest brand reference is OpenUsage.sh. It auto-detects AI coding tools and API keys on your workstation and shows live quota, usage, spend, resets, rate limits, and model data in your terminal. It is built for mixed-tool workflows across Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenRouter, OpenAI, Anthropic, and more. Zero config required — just run openusage.
Run it side-by-side with your coding agent:
OpenUsage running alongside OpenCode monitoring live OpenRouter usage.
brew install janekbaraniewski/tap/openusagecurl -fsSL https://github.com/janekbaraniewski/openusage/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bashgo install github.com/janekbaraniewski/openusage/cmd/openusage@latestRequires CGO (CGO_ENABLED=1). Pre-built binaries are also available on the Releases page.
openusageAuto-detection picks up local tools and common API key env vars. No config needed.
Besides the live dashboard, OpenUsage has headless subcommands that reuse the same parsing and pricing — handy for scripts, CI, and quick checks:
openusage daily # usage & cost by day (also: weekly, monthly)
openusage session # grouped by session
openusage blocks # by 5-hour billing block, with burn rate + projection
openusage daily --json # machine-readable output for scripts/CI
openusage statusline install # one-line status bar for Claude CodeWhat each report can show, by provider:
| Report | Providers |
|---|---|
daily / weekly / monthly |
every provider that reports cost or tokens |
session / blocks |
Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cursor, OpenCode, Ollama, Amp, Codebuff, OpenClaw, Roo Code, Kilo Code, Crush, Goose, Hermes, Zed, Droid, Kiro |

Claude Code |
Remote API platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, …) appear in the periodic reports only — they expose no per-turn data. See the headless reports & statusline guide for the full matrix and flags.
|
Show your Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, and OpenRouter usage — cost, quota, burn rate, and the active tool — right in your tmux status bar. It tracks whichever tool you're actively using and renders its real, brand-colored logo. |
One command to set it up. Tweak the layout and segments live, then reload:
openusage tmux install # interactive setup
tmux source-file ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf # reloadWant real provider logos instead of emoji? The installer can drop in a bundled icon font and wire up your terminal. See provider icons.
openusage tmux install --write # non-interactive (scripting): just write the snippet
openusage tmux --preset claude-focused # preview other presets (12 built-in)
openusage tmux font setup # configure icons for kitty/Ghostty/WezTerm
openusage tmux doctor # diagnose if something is offSee the tmux integration guide for the format grammar, theming, the icon font, and watch-mode alerts.
Your cost, burn rate, how much of the 5-hour limit you've used, and how full the context window is. Right in the Claude Code status bar:
Same deal as tmux: one command, pick your segments, apply.
openusage statusline installRestart Claude Code and it's there.
See the statusline guide for customization and manual setup.
Native dashboards show one provider at a time. OpenUsage gives you one local-first view across coding agents, API platforms, and local runtimes so you can answer:
- Which tool or provider is burning budget?
- Which model caused the spike?
- Which quota or reset is getting close?
- Which sessions, projects, or MCP tools drove the change?
It is built for end-user tool tracking, not for instrumenting a separate AI app with tracing SDKs or a billing backend.
If you want the full positioning argument, read the guide: best way to track coding agent usage and quotas across providers.
If the question is whether this is the right fit versus a simpler local limits tracker, use:
- Cross-provider tracking — compare coding agents, API platforms, and local runtimes in one local dashboard
- 35 providers — coding agents and CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Amp, Goose, Roo Code, Kilo Code, Kiro, Zed, and more), API platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, Groq, Mistral, DeepSeek, Moonshot, Perplexity, xAI, Z.AI, and more), and local runtimes (Ollama)
- Zero config — auto-detects your AI tools and API keys, just run it
- Live dashboard — see spend, quotas, rate limits, tokens, burn rate, and per-model usage at a glance
- tmux integration — show the active tool's usage in your tmux status bar, with provider icons, presets, and active-tool detection
- Claude Code statusline — one-line session cost, today's cost, burn rate, and context usage in Claude Code
- Headless reports —
daily,weekly,monthly,session, andblocksreports in table or JSON - Background tracking — a daemon collects data continuously, even when the dashboard is closed, into a local SQLite database you own
- Deep cost insights — model, tool, project, MCP, and session breakdowns; combine providers like OpenCode + OpenRouter
- Tool integrations — optional hooks for Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode provide richer, real-time usage data
- Export & metrics — export snapshots to JSON or CSV, look up model pricing, or serve Prometheus metrics from the built-in hub
- Customizable — 17 built-in themes, adjustable time windows, configurable thresholds, provider reordering, plus external theme files
35 provider integrations covering coding agents, CLIs, IDE tools, API platforms, and local runtimes. See docs/providers.md for all providers with detailed descriptions and screenshots.

No config file needed — auto-detection handles everything. Override or extend via:
- macOS/Linux:
~/.config/openusage/settings.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\openusage\settings.json
{
"auto_detect": true,
"ui": { "refresh_interval_seconds": 30 },
"accounts": [
{
"id": "openai-personal",
"provider": "openai",
"api_key_env": "OPENAI_API_KEY",
"probe_model": "gpt-4.1-mini"
}
]
}Full reference: configs/example_settings.json
You can define custom themes as JSON files loaded at startup from:
~/.config/openusage/themes/*.json(macOS/Linux)%APPDATA%\\openusage\\themes\\*.json(Windows)- Any extra directory in
OPENUSAGE_THEME_DIR(path-list separated)
Theme files use the same color token fields as built-ins. Browse the bundled examples for reference shapes — every shipped theme lives at internal/tui/bundled_themes/.
Background data collection, even when the dashboard isn't open:
openusage telemetry daemon # Run in foreground
openusage telemetry daemon install # Install as system service (launchd / systemd)
openusage telemetry daemon status # Check status
openusage telemetry daemon uninstall # UninstallInstalled services snapshot the provider env vars currently set in your shell.
If you change API key env vars later, rerun openusage telemetry daemon install
to refresh the service environment.
