Tip: Token Spend TUI — Visualize Where Your $200+/Day Claude Code Budget Actually Goes
r/ClaudeAI·medium signal
A developer spending $200+/day on Claude Code built a TUI (499 upvotes on r/ClaudeAI) that breaks down token consumption per conversation segment. The key insight: ccusage shows cost per model per day, but this tool shows whether it's debugging, research, or implementation eating your tokens. Pair with claude-code-token-visualizer (PyPI) for real-time histograms showing input/output tokens, cache hit rates, and per-model cumulative stats. Track your reads-per-edit ratio as a quality signal.
