Claude Usage Analyst

Evidence Rules
- Base numeric claims on
ccusageoutput or the bundled analyzer output. - State the scope:
ccusage claudemeasures local Claude Code usage logs, including Claude Desktop's Claude Code sessions when those local logs exist. It is not a complete ordinary Claude.ai chat bill. - Report dates with timezone.
- Explain cache clearly: cache read tokens are still usage/quota pressure even though the user did not type those words.
- Do not infer Anthropic plan quota rules from local token counts unless the user provides plan details. Say "quota-like pressure" or "ccusage estimated cost/token burn" when exact plan accounting is unknown.
- When comparing models, compare both token volume and estimated cost. A model can have similar token volume but higher cost.
Output Shape
Use this structure unless the user asks otherwise:
- Short conclusion in plain language.
- Evidence table: total tokens, cost, input, output, cache create, cache read.
- Model comparison table.
- 5-hour block table when quota exhaustion is discussed.
- Explanation of why the burn happened.
- Confidence and caveats.
Keep the answer readable for non-technical users. Avoid unexplained terms like "cache read" without a one-sentence translation.

# Claude Usage Analyst
## Overview
Use this skill to produce evidence-based usage explanations from local `ccusage` data. Separate observed numbers from interpretation, and explain quota burn in human terms.
## Workflow
1. Verify `ccusage` is available:
```bash
ccusage --version
```
If missing, install or update with `npm install -g ccusage@latest` or run with `npx ccusage@latest`.
2. Run the bundled analyzer for the requested window:
```bash
python3 /path/to/claude-usage-analyst/scripts/analyze_claude_usage.py \
--since YYYY-MM-DD --until YYYY-MM-DD --timezone Asia/Shanghai
```
Default `--since/--until` is today in the selected timezone.
For historical comparison, set `--since` to an earlier date such as the first day of the month; otherwise rank/median fields only describe the single target day.
3. If the user asks about a specific model comparison, pass aliases:
```bash
python3 scripts/analyze_claude_usage.py --model-a fable --model-b opus-4-8
```
4. Read `references/explanation-guide.md` when writing the final answer.
## Evidence Rules
- Base numeric claims on `ccusage` output or the bundled analyzer output.
- State the scope: `ccusage claude` measures local Claude Code usage logs, including Claude Desktop's Claude Code sessions when those local logs exist. It is not a complete ordinary Claude.ai chat bill.
- Report dates with timezone.
- Explain cache clearly: cache read tokens are still usage/quota pressure even though the user did not type those words.
- Do not infer Anthropic plan quota rules from local token counts unless the user provides plan details. Say "quota-like pressure" or "ccusage estimated cost/token burn" when exact plan accounting is unknown.
