Tokenscope MCP Server

See what your AI-coding session actually cost - and what's eating your context. A local, read-only CLI that parses your Claude Code session logs and shows where the money goes: model output vs. context being re-sent every turn (the hidden 60%+ of most bills).

People who work with ai cost and token usage and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in HTML.

  "mcpServers": {
    "wartzar-bee-tokenscope": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@wartzar-bee/tokenscope-mcp"
      ]
