πŸ“– About This Skill


name: ai-usage description: | Check AI usage across Anthropic and other providers. Use when: 1. User asks about AI usage, token usage, or quota 2. User says "what's my AI usage" or "how much have I used" 3. User asks about Anthropic/Claude usage or limits 4. User asks about costs or spending on AI 5. Monitoring usage during heartbeats (daily check)

AI Usage Check

Quick Start

python3 scripts/usage_check.py           # Pretty report with gauges
python3 scripts/usage_check.py --json    # JSON output for scripting

Requirements

  • Python 3.10+ (no pip dependencies β€” stdlib only)
  • Claude Code installed and authenticated (claude CLI in PATH) β€” for Anthropic quota
  • OpenClaw installed β€” for session log token/cost stats
  • What It Shows

    Anthropic (real quota from OAuth API):

  • Weekly utilization % with reset countdown
  • 5-hour rolling window %
  • Model-specific weekly (Sonnet, Opus) when available
  • Extra usage spend vs monthly limit
  • Other Providers (from OpenClaw session logs):

  • Token counts and call counts per model
  • Auto-detects any provider OpenClaw routes through (Ollama, OpenAI, etc.)
  • OpenClaw Anthropic breakdown:

  • Per-model token counts and equivalent API cost
  • How It Works

  • Anthropic quota: GET https://api.anthropic.com/api/oauth/usage using Claude Code's OAuth token from ~/.claude/.credentials.json (requires user:profile scope)
  • Token auto-refresh: If the token is expired, the script automatically refreshes it by invoking claude --print -p "ok" (Claude Code refreshes its own OAuth token on any invocation), then re-reads the updated credentials file. If Claude Code isn't installed, Anthropic quota is skipped gracefully.
  • Session stats: Parses ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/*.jsonl for per-provider/model token and cost data
  • Environment Variables

    | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | OPENCLAW_SESSIONS_DIR | ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions | OpenClaw session log directory | | CLAUDE_CREDENTIALS_PATH | ~/.claude/.credentials.json | Claude Code credentials file |

    Tips

  • Run via Haiku or a lightweight model for heartbeat/background checks β€” the script just needs to execute, no reasoning required
  • Use --json for programmatic consumption (cron jobs, dashboards, alerts)
  • Works with any Anthropic subscription tier (Pro, Max, Team, etc.)
  • πŸ’‘ Examples

    python3 scripts/usage_check.py           # Pretty report with gauges
    python3 scripts/usage_check.py --json    # JSON output for scripting
