Preflight Checklist
Problem Statement
Claude Code's /cost command provides no actionable usage data for Pro and Max subscribers — it only confirms that a
subscription is active. However, the claude.ai web interface displays real-time daily and weekly usage percentages
drawn from the same account. This creates an inconsistency where users must leave the CLI and open a browser to check
how much of their usage limit remains, interrupting their workflow.
Proposed Solution
Extend the /cost (or /usage) command for Pro/Max subscribers to query and display the same usage metrics available
on the claude.ai dashboard — specifically the current daily and weekly usage as a percentage of the plan limit. This
would allow developers to monitor their remaining capacity without leaving the terminal.
