Tare

Ask Claude Code where your usage went.

About Tare

You hit a usage limit and don't know why. Your quota drains faster than it used to. You suspect something is eating tokens in the background. The records that answer all of this are already on your computer — Claude Code keeps a log of every request it makes. tare teaches Claude Code to read its own logs, so you can just ask.

No dashboards, no commands to learn. Install once, then ask in plain English.

Tare: the weight of the container, subtracted to find what's inside. Most of what a session costs is the container — context re-sent again and again — and that's exactly what these tools subtract.

That's it. Nothing else to set up — no accounts, no packages, no configuration. Start a new Claude Code session and it's live — type / and check that tare appears. If it doesn't, see the troubleshooting note — on machines where Claude Code has never installed a skill before, the installer can miss it. (Other ways to install — by hand, for a whole team, or as a Claude Code plugin — are in INSTALL.md .)

Open Claude Code and ask your question the way you'd ask a person. These all work — the words don't have to match, complaining about your limits is enough:

I got locked out ten minutes into my evening session — how is that possible?

Is it safe to start a big refactor now, or should I wait for my window to clear?
