# Usage Tracker

## When to Use This Skill

✅ **Use when:**
- Need to track tool/resource usage over time
- Generating usage reports (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Monitoring quotas or limits
- Analyzing usage patterns
- Building dashboards

❌ **Avoid when:**
- Real-time metrics (use proper monitoring tools)
- High-frequency events (>100/second)
- Sensitive data without encryption

## Summary

$(generate_summary "$period" | sed 's/\x1b\[[0-9;]*m//g')

## Daily Breakdown

| Date | Opus | Sonnet | Haiku | Total |
|------|------|--------|-------|-------|
EOF

    for i in $(seq 6 -1 0); do
        local date=$(date -d "$i days ago" +%Y-%m-%d)
        local opus=$(grep "$date" "$USAGE_LOG" | grep "|opus|" | wc -l)
        local sonnet=$(grep "$date" "$USAGE_LOG" | grep "|sonnet|" | wc -l)
        local haiku=$(grep "$date" "$USAGE_LOG" | grep "|haiku|" | wc -l)
        local total=$((opus + sonnet + haiku))

        echo "| $date | $opus | $sonnet | $haiku | $total |" >> "$output"
    done

    cat >> "$output" << EOF

## Recommendations

Based on current usage patterns:
$(generate_recommendations)

---
Generated: $(date)
EOF

    echo "Report generated: $output"
}
```
