Claude Code tool shows real-time cost before typing

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new tool called ClaudeStatsBar has been developed to display the cost of the next turn in Claude Code before a user types. This is because the percentage of context used does not accurately reflect the actual cost. The tool shows that at 486,000 tokens out of a 1 million token context window, a message costs 49,000 tokens, which is eleven times the initial session cost. AI

IMPACT Provides developers with better cost visibility for LLM interactions.
