codeburnLocal-first cost ledger for AI coding: reads the session files 36 tools already write and breaks every token and dollar down by task, model, project. TUI, web, desktop, menubar — no proxy, no keys.
Why switchBoth are local-first cost ledgers built from session files already on disk. Codeburn spans 36 tools for breadth; tare goes deep on one — causal attribution and rolling-window forensics that only work if you model a single harness's log format precisely.
Full comparison → claude-code-karmaLocal-first dashboard over ~/.claude — sessions, timelines, per-session costs, tool/agent/skill/plugin analytics, live activity via hooks, and ticket linking. No cloud, no telemetry.
Why switchBoth read ~/.claude locally with no cloud. Karma is a dashboard you go and browse; tare is a question you ask inside the session and get a diagnosis and a recommendation back. Pick by whether you want charts or an answer.
Full comparison → agentacctLocal-first work receipts for coding agents: reads the session logs Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Hermes already write and reports what each task did, what it cost, and whether a check proved it.
Why switchBoth turn session logs into receipts without sending anything off the machine. agentacct reports what a task did and whether a check proved it across harnesses; tare answers the narrower question of why your limit hit.
Full comparison → ai-token-monitorMenu-bar/tray app for macOS and Windows that reads Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode session logs and shows live token spend — per-model pricing with cache reads, plan-limit bars, webhook alerts.
Why switchSame worry — 'am I about to hit the limit'. ai-token-monitor is an always-on menu-bar gauge with plan-limit bars; tare is retrospective forensics that tells you how full the window was at the exact moment you got locked out.
Full comparison → abtophtop for AI coding agents: every Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode session in one TUI — tokens, context-window %, rate limits, child processes, orphan ports. Read-only, no API keys. Rust.
Why switchBoth surface token and context burn across sessions. abtop is live htop over running agents; tare works from logs after the fact, which is the only way to catch background automation you didn't know was running.
