Eco Report - measured token accounting

SkillCommerce & finance

Show where the tokens actually went - per-session output, thinking, input and cache accounting read from this machine's Claude Code transcripts. Use when the user asks what they spent, which sessions were expensive, how their prompt cache is doing, or whether /eco is helping. Works in any language.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by sup3x/claude-code-eco in skills/eco-report/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Every number comes from the local JSONL transcript store. Read them; never estimate them.

Run it

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/report.mjs"

If ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} did not expand (personal or project install rather than a plugin), run report.mjs from this skill's own directory - the installer stages it there - and fall back to scripts/report.mjs in the claude-code-eco checkout.

Pass the user's arguments straight through:

  • --days <n> window, default 7, 0 for all history
  • --limit <n> session rows to print (totals always cover every session)
  • --dir <path> a transcript store other than $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/projects
  • --json machine-readable output

Present it

  • The script's table is already on screen as the command's output. Do not reprint it - it is a finished report, and repeating it burns tokens on something the user is already looking at. Do not re-format it, re-order it, re-tally it, or drop lines to save space.
  • Then add at most three lines of your own: the biggest cost driver visible in the table and one concrete action (for example a session with a high out/turn, or a cache write/read ratio above ~0.3, which means the prompt prefix keeps being rebuilt).
  • Keep the "Observational, NOT a controlled A/B" disclaimer. The eco-armed vs not gap is not a measured saving - the user chose when to run /eco, so difficulty is a confound. State it as a correlation or not at all; the controlled numbers live in benchmarks/results.md.
  • Never quote a cost in currency. Transcripts record tokens, not prices. If asked for money, say the price is not in the data and point at the published rates for the models listed.
  • turns are API requests, deduped by requestId; thinking is a subset of output, not an addition to it. Say so if the user reads the columns as additive.
  • On "No sessions ...", the window is simply empty: offer --days 0. Do not go hunting through other files.

This skill only reads. It never edits transcripts, settings, or project files.
