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.

Model usage

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

Fetch cost JSON via CodexBar CLI or pass a JSON file.
Use the bundled script to summarize by model.

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:

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.
