Fetches real-time and historical cost data from the OpenRouter API. Shows today, week, and month spend totals alongside a per-model breakdown of recent activity.
Gives CLI-accessible spend breakdowns without logging into the OpenRouter web dashboard.
When to use it
- Checking how much you've spent on AI models today
- Reviewing which models consumed the most budget last week
- Monitoring monthly spend against your OpenRouter balance
- Auditing per-model costs before a billing cycle closes
- Comparing model spend across a recent project
