Description
Token Quotient is a plugin designed for Claude Code, offering users the ability to understand and manage the costs associated with AI jobs before they commence. It functions by providing a token quote prior to the initiation of a large AI task, allowing users to make informed decisions. Once the job is completed, Token Quotient calculates the actual cost, providing a clear comparison to the initial estimate.

The plugin is particularly beneficial for managing large AI jobs, as it can split them into smaller, manageable installments that align with the user's 5-hour and weekly usage limits. This ensures that users do not exceed their allocated resources, maintaining control over their AI operations. Token Quotient is MIT licensed and requires Python 3.8 or newer to operate.
Token Quotient offers three levels of estimates: essential, good, and max, each with different inclusions and estimated token usage. Users can choose the level that best fits their needs and usage limits. The plugin also integrates with Hermes Agent, allowing it to read token counters and measure jobs within that environment as well.
Installation is straightforward, requiring only a few commands within Claude Code. Users can easily set up or modify settings, generate reports comparing estimates to real costs, and manage job installments. Privacy is a priority, with all data recorded locally and only minimal, anonymized data shared for improving estimates.
Overall, Token Quotient is an essential tool for anyone using Claude Code to manage AI jobs, providing transparency and control over AI job costs and resource usage.
