# OpenAI Usage Skill Use this skill when the user asks things like: - "what is my OpenAI usage at?" - "show my OpenAI limits" - "how much OpenAI budget do I have left?" ## Command - Human-readable output: - `node skills/openai-usage/check-openai-usage.js` - JSON output: - `node skills/openai-usage/check-openai-usage.js --json` ## Data Source - Codex app-server `account/rateLimits/read` (ChatGPT mode) - No manual fallback. If Codex rate limits are unavailable, return an actionable error. ## Behavior - Reports 5-hour and weekly remaining percentages. - Computes one health stage (`healthy`, `medium`, `low`, `critical`) using separate 5-hour and weekly thresholds. - Stage rules: - `critical` if 5-hour <= 10% OR weekly <= 10% - `low` if 5-hour <= 25% OR weekly <= 20% - `medium` if 5-hour <= 50% OR weekly <= 30% - otherwise `healthy`
