chronicle:cost-tips — Copilot Billing Is Live, Here's Your Spend Analyzer 💸
· 4 min read
Usage-based billing went live on June 1. Two days in, most developers have zero visibility into what's actually burning their premium requests. Chronicle just shipped a new cost-focused command — /chronicle:cost-tips — that surfaces exactly that. Think of it as the spending companion to the workflow-quality /chronicle:tips command we covered in April. It builds on the same session insights infrastructure in VS Code but points the lens squarely at your wallet. This post is commentary on why it matters right now.
