TL;DR

Simon Willison shows how to add custom model pricing to AgentsView, Wes McKinney's CLI for tracking token spend across coding agents. The fix lets new models like Claude Fable 5 show real costs before the tool's price database updates.

Key Points

1

AgentsView reads transcripts from Claude Code, Codex, Pi, and more to total token spend

2

Run it with uvx for an ASCII table of per-agent spending in the terminal

3

Add custom prices in ~/.agentsview/config.toml when a model is missing

4

Willison logged $82.92 in tokens within about 4.5 hours of getting Fable 5 access

Why It Matters

As coding-agent bills climb, per-model token visibility is becoming a basic ops requirement rather than a nice-to-have.
