openclaw-claude-usage
v1.0.1Check Claude Max plan usage limits by launching Claude Code and running /usage. Use when the user asks about Claude plan usage, remaining quota, rate limits, or sends /claude_usage.
Installation
Claude Usage
Check Claude Max subscription usage by launching Claude Code interactively.
Requirements
expectmust be installed (available at/usr/bin/expecton macOS)- Claude Code CLI must be installed and authenticated
Procedure
Use expect to automate the interactive TUI (the /usage command is a terminal UI, not a simple CLI):
-
Run the expect script to launch Claude Code and execute
/usage:bash expect -c ' spawn claude expect "Welcome" send "/usager" expect "Show plan usage" sleep 1 send "r" expect "Resets" ' -
Parse the output for these metrics:
- Current session: Look for "Current session" line with percentage and reset time
- Current week (all models): Look for "Current week (all models)" with percentage and reset date
- Current week (Sonnet only): Look for "Current week (Sonnet only)" with percentage
-
Extra usage: Look for "Extra usage" line
-
Strip ANSI escape codes from output before parsing
-
Format and relay the metrics to the user
Example Output
The expect script returns something like:
Current session ██████████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 21% used Resets 5:59pm (America/Los_Angeles)
Current week (all models)
████████████████████████░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 28% used Resets Feb 21 at 6am (America/Los_Angeles)
