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 — stdlib only)
- Claude Code installed and authenticated (
claudeCLI in PATH) — for Anthropic quota - OpenClaw installed — 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/usageusing Claude Code's OAuth token from~/.claude/.credentials.json(requiresuser:profilescope) - 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/*.jsonlfor 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 — the script just needs to execute, no reasoning required
- Use
--jsonfor programmatic consumption (cron jobs, dashboards, alerts) - Works with any Anthropic subscription tier (Pro, Max, Team, etc.)
