You can track API token costs by initiating a measurement command to start monitoring input, output, and cache tokens, then stopping it to receive a detailed USD cost report based on Anthropic's pricing model.
Yes, session-based tracking allows you to start and stop cost measurement for defined periods, providing per-entry token logs and aggregated summaries to calculate USD expenses for specific Claude Code sessions.
Token monitoring works by logging input, output, and cache tokens per API call and calculating costs using current Anthropic pricing, enabling precise budget management and resource optimization in AI development workflows.
The best way to measure experimental prompt iteration costs is to start tracking before your experiments and stop it after, yielding a detailed report of per-entry token logs and aggregated cost summaries.
No dependencies are required to calculate API token costs; the Skill operates independently to monitor tokens and apply Anthropic's pricing model for USD expense calculation.
The cost report includes detailed per-entry token logs showing input, output, and cache tokens, along with aggregated summaries calculating total USD expenses based on Anthropic's pricing model.
