token-burn

token-burn is a Context window & token budget skill for AI agents, published by Vesely in the skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates token-burn D (62/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Analyze recent Claude Code sessions and report where the most tokens (and estimated cost) were burned, with data-driven tips to cut usage and avoid rate limits. Scans ~/.claude/projects session logs over a window (default last 5h, configurable), ranks the heaviest sessions and projects, breaks down cache efficiency and model spend, and renders a minimalist report — in a cmux markdown panel when cmux is available, otherwise as an ASCII summary in the terminal. Use this whenever the user wants to know where their tokens went, why they're hitting (or nearing) usage/rate limits, what their recent Claude Code activity cost, which sessions or projects are the most expensive, or how to optimize token usage. Trigger on phrases like "token burn", "where did my tokens go", "token/usage report", "what's burning tokens", "session cost", "how much have I spent on Claude", "why am I hitting rate limits", "analyze my claude sessions", "token breakdown", "/token-burn", and "/burn".
