CodeBurn is an open-source terminal dashboard that tracks AI coding tool spending across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, and 6 more platforms — reading session data directly from disk with no proxies or API keys required. Created April 13 and already at 4,409 stars, it classifies spend into 13 task categories (Coding, Debugging, Testing, etc.), tracks one-shot rates (edits without retries), and includes an experimental yield tracker correlating AI sessions with git commits. The macOS menubar widget and optimization scanner identifying waste patterns make it immediately useful for teams watching AI spend.
