Tracks token usage and estimated costs across multiple OpenClaw agents using the built-in session_status tool. Compares totals against configurable daily and weekly budget thresholds, then surfaces model-switching and configuration changes to reduce spend.
Because it uses OpenClaw's built-in session_status tool, the monitoring itself adds zero additional API cost.
When to Use It
- Checking which agent burned the most tokens overnight
- Forecasting whether you'll hit a weekly rate limit before Friday
- Running an automated daily cost digest via cron at a set hour
- Spotting whether heartbeat pings are using an expensive model unnecessarily
- Getting a projected weekly spend before approving a new agent workflow
