Query Claude API usage and cost reports from the command line. Secure macOS Keychain storage for Admin API key. Table/JSON output.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
โ ๏ธ DEPRECATED โ This skill is no longer maintained. Please use claude-cost-cli instead, which provides the same functionality with active support. A CLI for querying Anthropic Admin API usage and cost data. Requires an Admin API key (sk-ant-admin...) from Claude Console โ Settings โ Admin Keys. Credentials are stored in macOS Keychain.
Requires Node.js >= 18 and macOS. The package is open source: https://github.com/cyberash-dev/claude-usage-cli npm install -g claude-usage-cli Install from source (if you prefer to audit the code before running): git clone https://github.com/cyberash-dev/claude-usage-cli.git cd claude-usage-cli npm install && npm run build && npm link After installation the claude-usage command is available globally.

Admin API key: stored exclusively in macOS Keychain (service: claude-usage-cli). Never written to disk in plaintext. No config files: all settings are passed via CLI flags. Nothing is stored on disk besides the Keychain entry. Network: the API key is only sent to api.anthropic.com over HTTPS. No other outbound connections are made. Scope: the Admin API key grants read-only access to organization usage and cost data. It cannot modify billing, create API keys, or access conversation content. No caching: query results are not cached or persisted to disk.
This CLI wraps the Anthropic Admin API: Usage: GET /v1/organizations/usage_report/messages Cost: GET /v1/organizations/cost_report Documentation: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/usage-cost-api
