Usage Tracking ​

Monitor token usage, costs, and billing blocks with daily and monthly charts.

Overview ​

The Usage page aggregates token usage data from Claude Code sessions and displays costs, trends, and billing block analysis.

How to Use ​

Overview Tab ​

Summary cards show total tokens, total cost, and key metrics. A daily chart plots usage over time.

Daily Tab ​

Detailed daily usage and cost graphs broken down by token type:

  • Input tokens — prompt tokens sent to Claude
  • Output tokens — response tokens from Claude
  • Cache creation — tokens written to cache
  • Cache read — tokens read from cache

Sessions Tab ​

A sortable table listing individual sessions with columns for date, model, input/output tokens, and estimated cost.

Monthly Tab ​

Month-over-month trend charts showing usage and cost patterns.

Blocks Tab ​

View billing blocks — 5-hour usage windows that Anthropic uses for billing:

  • Current active block with time remaining
  • Recent completed blocks with token totals and costs

Filtering ​

Use the project filter dropdown to view usage for a specific project or across all projects.

Configuration ​

Usage data is read-only. Claude Code stores usage records in:

~/.claude/projects/{project-folder}/usage/*.jsonl

Claude Deck caches parsed usage data in localStorage with a 5-minute TTL for instant page loads on return visits.

Tips ​

  • Cache tokens (creation + read) can significantly impact costs — monitor the breakdown.
  • Billing blocks show 5-hour windows — useful for understanding burst usage patterns.
  • Costs are calculated using per-model, per-token-type pricing.
  • The page caches data client-side — click refresh for the latest numbers.
