Track and sync AI coding tool token usage to vibecafe.ai dashboard.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Vibe Usage

Track your AI coding tool token usage and sync to [vibecafe.ai](https://vibecafe.ai/usage).

## Setup

First-time setup (interactive — opens the browser for login, then syncs and turns on background sync):

```bash
npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage
```

Headless machines: pre-issue a key at https://vibecafe.ai/usage/setup and run `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage init --manual-key <vbu_...> --no-daemon`.

## Commands

When the user asks to sync usage, check costs, or track tokens, run:

```bash
npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage sync
```

Other available commands:

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage sync` | Sync latest usage data |
| `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage status` | Show config, detected tools, and how much each tool has uploaded |
| `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage daemon status` | Check the background sync service (installed by first run) |
| `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage reset` | Delete all data and re-upload |
| `npx @vibe-cafe/vibe-usage reset --local` | Delete this host's data and re-upload |

## When to Use

- User says "sync my usage", "upload usage", "track tokens"
- User asks "how much have I spent?", "what's my cost?"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vibe-cafe/vibe-usage/vibe-usage@sha256:32e832f44058947e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.5854d13, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
