A new open-source Python package called tokenecon has been released to provide detailed cost breakdowns for LLM agent runs. Developed by Karmendra Pandey, tokenecon offers integrations with popular frameworks like LiteLLM and LangChain, allowing developers to track expenses per task, model call, and even per correct answer. This tool aims to bring transparency to the often opaque cost structures of complex AI applications by generating detailed receipts for each step of an agent's execution. AI
