About this plugin

When developing or deploying AI applications with DeepSeek Harness, developers often struggle to track and manage token costs effectively. Without timely monitoring of token consumption per session, unexpected expenses can arise, impacting project budgets and efficiency.

The dsh-plugin-cost-tracker plugin addresses this challenge head-on. It automatically tracks token usage for each session, calculates real-time costs based on pricing for supported models like deepseek-v4, gpt-4o, and more, and injects cost awareness into the system prompt to keep users mindful of expenses during interactions. Additionally, it offers a CLI tool for quick cost estimation before or during development.

Whether you're an independent developer, research team, or enterprise user leveraging DeepSeek Harness for AI model calls, this plugin provides a transparent cost view, optimizing resource usage and preventing unnecessary waste.

Use Cases

  • Monitor token consumption and costs in real-time during AI development sessions
  • Use the CLI tool to estimate cost budgets for different models before deployment
  • Integrate cost awareness into system prompts to prevent unexpected expenses

Best For

  • Independent AI developers managing project costs
  • Research teams controlling budgets during large-scale model experiments
  • Enterprise users optimizing total cost of ownership for AI deployments
