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
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.

# CodexBar CLI quick ref (usage + cost)
## Install
- App: Preferences -> Advanced -> Install CLI
- Repo: ./bin/install-codexbar-cli.sh
## Commands
- Usage snapshot (web/cli sources):
- codexbar usage --format json --pretty
- codexbar --provider all --format json
- Local cost usage (Codex + Claude only):
- codexbar cost --format json --pretty
- codexbar cost --provider codex|claude --format json
## Cost JSON fields
The payload is an array (one per provider).
- provider, source, updatedAt
- sessionTokens, sessionCostUSD
- last30DaysTokens, last30DaysCostUSD
- daily[]: date, inputTokens, outputTokens, cacheReadTokens, cacheCreationTokens, totalTokens, totalCost, modelsUsed, modelBreakdowns[]
- modelBreakdowns[]: modelName, cost
- totals: totalInputTokens, totalOutputTokens, cacheReadTokens, cacheCreationTokens, totalTokens, totalCost
## Notes
- Cost usage is local-only. It reads JSONL logs under:
- Codex: ~/.codex/sessions/**/*.jsonl
- Claude: ~/.config/claude/projects/**/*.jsonl or ~/.claude/projects/**/*.jsonl
- If web usage is required (non-local), use codexbar usage (not cost).
