One live dashboard for every AI coding tool, synced across every machine.
A desktop widget that shows live token usage and AI Tool Limits across 28+ AI coding tools — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and more — with real-time multi-device sync, historical usage trends, and breakdowns by tool, device, model, session, or project.
Token Monitor supports token usage, account-limit checks, and session details separately:

Most usage monitors are useful on the machine they run on. Token Monitor is built for multi-device work: each device watches its own local logs, sends summary updates to your hub, and every connected widget sees token changes almost immediately.
- Live token tracking — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Antigravity, OpenCode, and 21+ AI tools, with the UI updating within seconds of each turn (full list in the table above)
- Per-session detail — open a Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode session to see tokens per prompt, expandable to each reply's exact token split and tools used (read on-demand from local transcripts or databases, never synced)
- Cache hit statistics — click any tool or model to expand a detailed breakdown of input tokens (cache hit vs miss), output tokens, and hit-rate percentages
- Cost & currency — cost alongside token counts, shown in USD, TWD, HKD, or CNY; exchange rates auto-update daily and can be manually overridden in Settings
- WSL usage (Windows) — file-based usage from a running WSL distro is detected automatically and merged about every 5 minutes; SQLite-backed tools such as OpenCode and Hermes may require a headless agent inside WSL
- AI Tool Limits detection — provider-specific session, weekly, billing, and credits windows for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenRouter, third-party APIs, GLM, Kimi, and 18+ providers, including multiple OpenRouter/third-party profiles and DeepSeek prepaid balance/spend
- Multiple accounts & Codex switching — track several accounts per provider, each with its own limits; a tracked Codex account can be switched as the active local account in one click, without re-authenticating
- Preserve deleted session usage — many tools prune old sessions (Claude Code drops transcripts after 30 days by default), losing that history. When enabled, Token Monitor archives observed daily tool/model usage locally so the heatmap and trends survive even after the source files are gone (see Session data retention below)
- Usage Trends & Dashboard — a home-screen activity heatmap and trend chart, plus a dedicated dashboard window with streaks and stacked per-tool/per-model history (bar and K-line views) across all your devices
- Optional Status view — Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, and DeepSeek status pages, with manual or interval re-checks
- Data export — export usage as tool-agnostic CSV + JSON, manually or auto-written to a folder, for spreadsheets, Obsidian, Grafana, or scripts; see docs/export.md
- Subscription records — record by hand what each AI account actually costs; the plan label's tooltip then reports the price, the next renewal or end date, time subscribed, and the month's usage cost as a multiple of what the plan costs, for recurring plans and top-up ledgers alike
- Real-time multi-device sync — Server-Sent Events push an update on one device to the others within seconds
- Local-first — no servers needed for single-device use
- Self-hosted sync backend — in-widget hub, Node CLI hub, or Cloudflare Worker
- iOS widget support — Widgy and Scriptable through the Worker hub
- Privacy-first — prompts, responses, source code, and file contents stay on your machine
- Breakdown views — grouped by tool, device, model, session, project, or account limits
- Menu bar (macOS) and system tray (Windows) popover — live cost, tokens, or the closest-to-empty provider limit % next to the icon
- Floating Bubble mode — collapses the widget into a draggable mini-window with click or hover preview and tray-style content
- Menu bar layout composer — the menu bar and the floating bubble can use a built-in preset or a layout you build yourself: pick "Custom…" to add AI tool icons, quota bars, percentages, reset times, cost, or custom text, drag to reorder against a live preview, and give each item its own AI tool, account, quota window, and typeface
- Appearance controls — interface theme switching (incl. a light mode), per-tool vendor colours, glass opacity, blur, and transparent window mode
- Customizable tool list — hide, pin, and reorder tools in the main dashboard without changing what gets tracked
- Recordable global shortcut — show or hide the window from anywhere
- Discord Rich Presence — broadcast today's tokens, cost, and top client (opt-in)

Packaged builds check GitHub Releases automatically. When an update is available, the app shows an update indicator; supported platforms can also install from Settings → General.
Local mode is the default: launch the app and it starts tracking this device. No hub, agent, or config required.
Pick ONE hub backend that all your devices (and any headless agents) connect to. On each device, open the widget and pick a mode under Settings → Multi-device Sync. The widget contributes this device's usage automatically; run npm run agent only on machines without a widget.
In the widget on one always-on machine, open Settings → Multi-device Sync and pick Host hub on this device. The widget generates a random secret and lists the LAN URLs other devices can connect to (Tailscale or ZeroTier addresses appear here too). On every other device, pick Connect to a hub and paste the URL + secret.
The hub runs while Token Monitor is running — quitting (not just closing the window) stops it for all connected devices.
# on the always-on machine
cp .env.example .env
# set TOKEN_MONITOR_SECRET to something private, then:
npm run hubOne-click deploy — Cloudflare will prompt for the TOKEN_MONITOR_SECRET during setup. Or deploy manually:
cd worker
npm install
npx wrangler login
npx wrangler secret put TOKEN_MONITOR_SECRET
npx wrangler deployPaste the deployed URL into each device's widget at Settings → Multi-device Sync. See worker/README.md for the iOS widget recipe and endpoint reference, or docs/API.md for the hub HTTP API.
App state lives in the OS user-data dir — delete it along with the app to fully uninstall.

npm run dist:mac:x64 # macOS Intel x64 .dmg → dist/
npm run dist:win # Windows x64 installer .exe → dist/
npm run dist:linux # Linux x64 AppImage → dist/
npm run pack # unpacked app dir (no installer), for quick local testingOutput lands in dist/. Windows and Linux use the matching dist:* script above on the target OS. Packaging the macOS release build requires a local Developer ID Application signing identity; use npm start for local development or unsupported platforms.
Mode A — Local (default, no setup)
widget (Electron) ──▶ tokscale ──▶ ~/.claude, ~/.codex, $HERMES_HOME
Mode B — Sync (opt-in, multi-device)
device A agent ──▶
device B agent ──▶ hub ──▶ widget on any device
device C agent ──▶
The widget chooses local vs sync mode based on Settings → Multi-device Sync. The hub itself can run as a separate npm run hub process, a Cloudflare Worker, or directly inside one of the widgets (Host mode). In sync mode the hub pushes aggregated stats to every connected widget over Server-Sent Events, so updates on one device appear on the others within a few seconds.
With Preserve deleted session usage enabled (Settings → Collection), Token Monitor archives observed daily tool/model usage locally with no time limit — so even after a source tool prunes its own sessions, the heatmap and trends are unaffected.
Advanced: extend the source tool's own retention
The heatmap and sync payload use a rolling 370-day window (older observations remain available locally for future views). Claude Code keeps only 30 days of transcripts by default (cleanupPeriodDays); to keep the full rolling year before the archive kicks in, raise it in ~/.claude/settings.json before the window passes:
{
"cleanupPeriodDays": 370
}A larger value keeps more, at the cost of transcripts living on disk for as long as you set. tokscale's Session Data Retention table covers the other tools' defaults and config paths.
This archive only covers days Token Monitor has already observed; data deleted before it started tracking cannot be recovered.
There are two places to configure Token Monitor; day-to-day use only needs the first:
- Widget (GUI) — click the
⚙button in the bottom-right corner. Sections, in order: General (language, launch at login, updates), Main (Home modules and display currency), Window (window behavior, menu bar and floating-bubble layout, tray mode, shortcut), Appearance (theme and vendor colours), Collection (tracked tools, collection cadence, Preserve deleted session usage, data export), AI Tool Limits (provider selection, limits, and credentials), Subscriptions (what you pay per account), and Multi-device Sync. The⇧button in the title bar cycles the window behavior. - Headless agent & hub — no UI; configured with a
.envfile at the project root (copy from.env.example), precedence CLI flag → env var → built-in default.
See the configuration reference for every setting and all environment variables.
Token Monitor processes usage logs locally and sends no analytics or telemetry to the project maintainer. Network access occurs only for documented or user-enabled features. See the privacy policy for the data used by updates, provider integrations, Discord Rich Presence, and optional multi-device sync.
Issues and PRs are welcome. Project conventions, architecture notes, and the command reference live in AGENTS.md — written for coding agents, but it doubles as the contributor guide.
