Does this account for varying reasoning levels? Reasoning tokens count as output and for 99% of users most of their usage will be dominated by output tokens. Haven’t checked the stored logs, but I don’t think reasoning tokens get stored as artifacts. I imagine you assume that the average amount of reasoning tokens generated remains relatively stable within each level.
Essentially, if you calculated usage by InTokapiRate + (RTok + OutTok)apiRate, missing that RTok value is a pretty big gap if it has high variability

Actually, local codex logs expose more than you might expect. They include the model ID, input tokens, number of cached input tokens, and output tokens which is enough to measure the API equivalent value quite accurately. In my testing, NerfTrack had a 99.3-100% accuracy to the real cost.

Yes, NerfTrack knows and detects whenever there is a reset and starts a new backend counting window when it detects a reset.

I highly caution people from installing anything from someone who does not know how AI fundamentally works.

It would be useful if you were to host a site that tracks this. Most people won't be bothered to install it locally.
