dsh-usage-report

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that reports the current session's token usage and estimated cost. One host-plane plugin row registers:

• the usageReport session-projection unit — folds the provider-reported usage of every model request (uncached input, cache-read, cache-write, output) attributed to the model named by the nearest request/header, and prices each sample with the configured price table;
• the /usage human command — prints the report as a table;
• the usage_report model tool — returns the same report as canonical JSON, so the agent itself can check budget mid-task.

Costs are estimates, not billing records: they multiply the provider's reported token buckets by the price table below. The token buckets are exact provider numbers; the prices are configuration.

Install

Requirements: a DSH profile with the tools, commands, and sessionProjections services (the web and headless profiles provide all three via dsh-base).

# 1. make the plugin available to your profile (installs from this GitHub repo)
dsh plugin --profile web add -w 'github:Yihong89/dsh-plugins#main&path:packages/usage-report'

# 2. activate it in the profile's patch layer
#    add to ~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml:
#
#    - insert:
#        - id: usage-report
#          name: 'dsh-usage-report'

# 3. restart the profile (e.g. restart the `dsh web` process)

The package commits its built lib/, so the install needs no build-script permission. A profile patch is a pnpm workspace root, hence the -w flag.

usage_report (model tool)

The model can call it mid-task ("how much have we spent?") and receives the same numbers as canonical JSON:
