TokenSage

Local-first token API usage & cost tracker for every AI agent on one machine.

XLab Token is an npm package that runs a lightweight localhost service and dashboard. It aggregates token API consumption and estimated spend (cost) from all AI coding agents and CLIs installed on the host — including Cursor, Grok, Windsurf, Codex, Claude Code, and more — so you always know how many tokens each agent used and how much it cost.

No cloud account required by default. Data stays on your machine.

What it tracks

Dimension	Details
Token API usage	Input, output, cache-read, cache-write tokens per request / session
Spend (cost)	Estimated USD (or configured currency) from model pricing × tokens
By agent	Cursor, Grok, Windsurf, Codex, Claude Code, …
By model	e.g. claude-sonnet-4, gpt-4.1, grok-3, …
By time	Hour / day / week / custom range
By workspace	Project path when available in agent logs

Primary questions answered

1. How many tokens did all agents on this PC use today / this month?
2. Which agent burned the most tokens and money?
3. Which models drive the highest cost?
4. What is the running total spend across every local agent?

---

Why

Modern machines often run multiple AI agents in parallel. Each tool stores usage in a different path and format. Without one local aggregator:

Pain point	Impact
Fragmented token logs	No machine-wide token total
Opaque spend	Cannot see real API cost across agents
No cross-agent ranking	Hard to know which tool is expensive
Cloud-only dashboards	Privacy / offline limits

XLab Token scans local agent usage artifacts, normalizes them into one schema, computes token totals + cost, and serves them on localhost HTTP + UI.

---

Features

• Token API tracking — input / output / cache tokens from every supported agent
• Cost / spend tracking — estimated currency cost per event, agent, model, and period
• All agents on one machine — single dashboard for Cursor, Grok, Windsurf, Codex, Claude Code, …
• Localhost-only service — binds to 127.0.0.1 by default
• Live refresh — filesystem watchers + periodic rescan
• Breakdowns & rankings — top agents, top models, spend over time
• Stable JSON API — automate budgets, status bars, scripts
• npm-first UX — npx / bunx / global binary
• Offline-friendly pricing — bundled price table; optional refresh

1. Discover agent data directories on Windows / macOS / Linux.
2. Parse local usage / session files into unified UsageEvent records (tokens).
3. Price each event with the cost engine (model rate × token buckets).
4. Aggregate tokens + spend by agent, model, time, workspace.
5. Serve via http://127.0.0.1:<port> for UI and automation.

Agent modules

Each agent lives in its own folder under src/agents/<id>/ (one module = paths + parser):

src/agents/
  shared/          # generic-jsonl, usage-fields, path helpers
  claude-code/     # index.ts → export const agent
  codex/
  grok/
  …
  index.ts         # registry: AGENTS, scanAll, detectAgents

To add a new agent: create src/agents/<id>/index.ts exporting agent: AgentModule, then register it in src/agents/index.ts.

XLab Token only reads local files already on disk. It does not inject into agent processes or call vendor billing APIs unless you explicitly enable an optional integration later.

9Router / XLab Router data paths

Source	Typical location
Local 9Router	~/.9router (Linux/macOS) · %APPDATA%\\9router (Windows)
Local XLab Router	~/.xlabrouter · %APPDATA%\\xlabrouter
VPS install (my.bnix.one)	/root/.9router · /root/.xlabrouter
Local mirror (optional)	%APPDATA%\\xlab-token\\mirrors\\{9router,xlabrouter} · C:\\Dev\\VPS\\my.bnix.one\\{9router,xlabrouter}\\data
Env overrides	XLAB_TOKEN_9ROUTER_DIR · XLAB_TOKEN_XLABROUTER_DIR · NINEROUTER_HOME · XLABROUTER_HOME

Parsers read usageHistory (SQLite), usage.json history, db.json → usageData.history, or exported usage-history.jsonl. Router-reported cost is preferred when present.

Parsers ship incrementally; xlab-token doctors reports which agents are detected and which parsers are active.

Cost engine

Spend is computed locally from token buckets and a pricing table:

cost = (inputTokens      × priceInputPer1M
      + outputTokens     × priceOutputPer1M
      + cacheReadTokens  × priceCacheReadPer1M
      + cacheWriteTokens × priceCacheWritePer1M) / 1_000_000

Topic	Behavior
Price source	Bundled offline snapshot of common model rates
Unknown model	Marked pricing: "unknown"; cost may be null or use fallback tier
Currency	Default USD; display conversion optional
Accuracy	Estimate — may differ from provider invoices
Override	User can set custom rates in config

Data model

UsageEvent

Field	Type	Description
id	string	Stable hash (source + native id)
agent	string	cursor | grok | windsurf | codex | claude-code | …
model	string | null	Provider model id
timestamp	string	ISO-8601 UTC
inputTokens	number	API input / prompt tokens
outputTokens	number	API output / completion tokens
cacheReadTokens	number	Cache read tokens (if any)
cacheWriteTokens	number	Cache write tokens (if any)
totalTokens	number	Sum of token buckets
estimatedCost	number | null	Computed spend in currency
currency	string	e.g. USD
pricingStatus	string	priced | unknown_model | zero_rate
workspace	string | null	Project path when known
sourcePath	string	Local file parsed
raw	object | null	Sanitized native fields (no full prompts by default)

Storage

• SQLite under data directory
• Append-only events + rollup tables (tokens + cost by agent/model/day)
• Idempotent ingest on id

---

Privacy & security

Principle	Practice
Local by default	127.0.0.1 only
No account	No signup required
Prefer counters	Tokens + cost, not full chat bodies
User-owned DB	All data under data-dir
Explicit network	Optional price-table update only if enabled

Do not bind to 0.0.0.0 on untrusted networks. Treat the DB as sensitive if workspace paths are stored.

Contributing

We welcome contributions! Please see docs/CONTRIBUTING.md for guidelines on:

• Development workflow
• Code style and standards
• Testing requirements
• Pull request process
• Adding new agent support

Quick start:

1. Fork and branch from main
2. Add parser fixtures for each agent (token fields required; cost via engine)
3. Prefer small PRs; Conventional Commits (feat:, fix:, docs:)
