TokensBurned: Your AI Coding Receipt
An open-source tool that turns aggregate AI coding usage metadata into a live GitHub profile card.
Field notes
TokensBurned presents several collection paths rather than treating every coding harness alike: Claude Code has a native SessionEnd hook, while other tools use plugins, OTLP, or a CLI fallback. The stated data boundary is unusually concrete, retaining token counts, model metadata, 15-minute buckets, and a hashed session ID while excluding prompts, responses, repository names, transcript paths, and API keys. The builder also offers a static fictional preview before any live card is enabled.
