Status-bar token/cost for the current project plus the full token-monitor dashboard, in any VS Code-family editor: VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Antigravity.
The extension is a thin UI over the CLI — all parsing, storage, and privacy guarantees are the CLI's. Data never leaves your machine.
What you get
Status bar: 1.2M · ~$45 — work tokens and estimated cost for the workspace's project over the configured window (falls back to overall when the project has no data). Hover for cache hit and rework ratios; click to open the dashboard.
Token Monitor: Open Dashboard — the CLI's self-contained HTML dashboard in a webview.
Token Monitor: Collect & Refresh — re-scan agent logs on demand. Auto-collect also runs on a configurable interval.
Requirements
Node.js ≥ 24 on your PATH. By default the extension invokes npx -y @ryandemelo/token-monitor; point tokenMonitor.command at a global install (token-monitor) or a checkout (node /path/to/dist/src/cli.js) if you prefer.
