Problem Statement
Currently, Claude Code displays token usage (Current Session / Weekly limits) in the UI, but there is no API or programmatic way to retrieve this data for claude.ai subscription plans.
Many users run home servers or personal dashboards and would like to monitor their Claude usage alongside other metrics (CPU, memory, etc.).
Proposed Solution
Please provide a simple read-only API endpoint (e.g. with an API key or session token) that returns:
- Current session token usage
- Weekly token usage
- Plan limits
This would allow users to integrate their usage data into personal dashboards and avoid hitting limits unexpectedly.
Thank you for considering this request!
