## One-Liner
Tokidex is a macOS terminal UI for inspecting local Codex token usage.
## Short Description
Tokidex reads your local Codex state and shows token usage by session in a small
terminal UI. It is local-only: no network calls, no Codex auth token access, and
no billing guesses. Use `--privacy` for public screenshots.

I made `tokidex`, a tiny macOS TUI for inspecting local Codex token usage.
It reads Codex's local SQLite/JSONL state and shows token usage by session:
today, last 7 days, or all history.
Local-only: no network calls, no auth token access. Use `--privacy` for screenshots.
```sh
cargo install tokidex
tokidex --privacy --range today
```

I built Tokidex, a small Rust TUI for inspecting local Codex token usage on macOS.
It reads Codex's local state files and shows usage by session, with today/week/all filters and search. When Codex JSONL token_count events are available, it breaks usage down into input, cached input, output, reasoning output, and total tokens.
It is deliberately local-only: no network calls, no auth token access, and no billing guesses. It also has a --privacy mode for screenshots/streams.
Install:
cargo install tokidex
tokidex --privacy --range today

I made Tokidex, a small Rust TUI for inspecting local Codex token usage on macOS.
It reads local Codex SQLite/JSONL state and shows token usage by session. You can switch between today, last 7 days, and all history; search sessions; and inspect token breakdowns when local token_count details are available.
The tool is local-only: no network calls, no Codex auth token access, and no billing estimates. It has a --privacy mode for public screenshots.
