model-usage
Use CodexBar CLI local cost usage to summarize per-model usage for Codex or Claude, including the current (most recent) model or a full model breakdown. Trigger when asked for model-level usage/cost data from codexbar, or when you need a scriptable per-model summary from codexbar cost JSON.
Best use case
model-usage is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Use CodexBar CLI local cost usage to summarize per-model usage for Codex or Claude, including the current (most recent) model or a full model breakdown. Trigger when asked for model-level usage/cost data from codexbar, or when you need a scriptable per-model summary from codexbar cost JSON.
Teams using model-usage should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Model usage
- Author: Daniel Li

## 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.
```bash
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:
```bash
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.Related Skills
