tokenusage-cli@0.2.1
Self-hosted AI coding token usage collector for token-usage (forked from TokenTracker, MIT).
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe flagged persistence and configuration changes are tied to the explicit init workflow, while the credential flow inspected sends Claude credentials to Anthropic for usage data. The manifest has no install hook, and the reported agent-configuration pointer is a local cache write.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.
Trigger
User runs the CLI; integration setup and scheduled-task registration occur through init.
Impact
Expected token-usage collection and local integration setup; no concrete malicious behavior found.
Mechanism
Reads provider credentials to request usage data from their corresponding services and stores local configuration and cache files.
AI rationale
The flagged persistence and configuration changes are tied to the explicit init workflow, while the credential flow inspected sends Claude credentials to Anthropic for usage data. The manifest has no install hook, and the reported agent-configuration pointer is a local cache write.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest exposes a CLI and sets only a prepublishOnly test script; it declares no install, preinstall, or postinstall hook.
- The init command writes tracker configuration and sets up integrations as part of an explicit user command.
- On Windows, init can register an hourly sync task; the source documents the --no-task option and pause/resume controls.
- Claude usage code reads a Claude OAuth token and sends it as a bearer token to api.anthropic.com, the credential's own service.
- The categorizer writes a bounded local cache under ~/.tokenusage/cache/claude-categorizer/.
Evidence against
- The OpenClaw hook setup is a callable integration routine; the inspected CLI startup does not invoke it automatically.
- The scanner’s agent-configuration pointer resolves to a local categorizer cache write, not an AI-agent settings mutation.
