CodexBar CLI for fetching usage from the command line.
You want to call CodexBar data from scripts or a terminal.
Adding or modifying Commander-based CLI commands.
Aligning menubar and CLI output/behavior.

CodexBar CLI

A lightweight Commander-based CLI that mirrors the menubar app’s data paths (Codex web/RPC → PTY fallback; Claude web by default with CLI fallback and OAuth debug). Use it when you need usage numbers in scripts, CI, or dashboards without UI.

Install

  • In the app: Preferences → Advanced → Install CLI. This symlinks CodexBarCLI to /usr/local/bin/codexbar and /opt/homebrew/bin/codexbar.
  • From the repo: ./bin/install-codexbar-cli.sh (same symlink targets).
  • Manual: ln -sf "/Applications/CodexBar.app/Contents/Helpers/CodexBarCLI" /usr/local/bin/codexbar.

Linux install

  • Homebrew (Linuxbrew, Linux only): brew install steipete/tap/codexbar.
  • Download CodexBarCLI-v<tag>-linux-<arch>.tar.gz from GitHub Releases (x86_64 + aarch64).
  • Extract; run ./codexbar (symlink) or ./CodexBarCLI.
tar -xzf CodexBarCLI-v0.17.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
./codexbar --version
./codexbar usage --format json --pretty

Build

  • ./Scripts/package_app.sh (or ./Scripts/compile_and_run.sh) bundles CodexBarCLI into CodexBar.app/Contents/Helpers/CodexBarCLI.
  • Standalone: swift build -c release --product CodexBarCLI (binary at ./.build/release/CodexBarCLI).
  • Dependencies: Swift 6.2+, Commander package (https://github.com/steipete/Commander).

Configuration

CodexBar reads ~/.codexbar/config.json for provider settings, secrets, and ordering. See docs/configuration.md for the schema.

Command

  • codexbar defaults to the usage command.
    • --format text|json (default: text).
  • codexbar cost prints local token cost usage (Claude + Codex) without web/CLI access.
    • --format text|json (default: text).
    • --refresh ignores cached scans.
  • --provider <id|both|all> (default: enabled providers in config; falls back to defaults when missing).
    • Provider IDs live in the config file (see docs/configuration.md).
    • --account <label> / --account-index <n> / --all-accounts (token accounts from config; requires a single provider).
    • --no-credits (hide Codex credits in text output).
    • --pretty (pretty-print JSON).
    • --status (fetch provider status pages and include them in output).
    • --antigravity-plan-debug (debug: print Antigravity planInfo fields to stderr).
  • --source <auto|web|cli|oauth|api> (default: auto).
    • auto (macOS only): uses browser cookies for Codex + Claude, with CLI fallback only when cookies are missing.
    • web (macOS only): web-only; no CLI fallback.
    • cli: CLI-only (Codex RPC → PTY fallback; Claude PTY).
    • oauth: Claude OAuth only (debug); no fallback. Not supported for Codex.
    • api: API key flow when the provider supports it (z.ai, Gemini, Copilot, Kilo, Kimi K2, MiniMax, Warp, OpenRouter, Synthetic).
    • Output source reflects the strategy actually used (openai-web, web, oauth, api, local, or provider CLI label).
    • Codex web: OpenAI web dashboard (usage limits, credits remaining, code review remaining, usage breakdown).
      • --web-timeout <seconds> (default: 60)
      • --web-debug-dump-html (writes HTML snapshots to /tmp when data is missing)
    • Claude web: claude.ai API (session + weekly usage, plus account metadata when available).
    • Kilo auto: app.kilo.ai API first, then CLI auth fallback (~/.local/share/kilo/auth.json) on missing/unauthorized API credentials.
    • Linux: web/auto are not supported; CLI prints an error and exits non-zero.
  • Global flags: -h/--help, -V/--version, -v/--verbose, --no-color, --log-level <trace|verbose|debug|info|warning|error|critical>, --json-output, --json-only.
    • --json-output: JSONL logs on stderr (machine-readable).
    • --json-only: suppress non-JSON output; errors become JSON payloads.
  • codexbar config validate checks ~/.codexbar/config.json for invalid fields.
    • --format text|json, --pretty, and --json-only are supported.
    • Warnings keep exit code 0; errors exit non-zero.
  • codexbar config dump prints the normalized config JSON.

Token accounts

The CLI reads multi-account tokens from ~/.codexbar/config.json (same file as the app).

  • Select a specific account: --account <label> (matches the label/email in the file).
  • Select by index (1-based): --account-index <n>.
  • Fetch all accounts for the provider: --all-accounts. Account selection flags require a single provider (--provider claude, etc.). For Claude, token accounts accept either sessionKey cookies or OAuth access tokens (sk-ant-oat...). OAuth usage requires the user:profile scope; inference-only tokens will return an error.

Cost JSON payload

codexbar cost --format json emits an array of payloads (one per provider).

  • provider, source, updatedAt
  • sessionTokens, sessionCostUSD
  • last30DaysTokens, last30DaysCostUSD
  • daily[]: date, inputTokens, outputTokens, cacheReadTokens, cacheCreationTokens, totalTokens, totalCost, modelsUsed, modelBreakdowns[] (modelName, cost)
  • totals: inputTokens, outputTokens, cacheReadTokens, cacheCreationTokens, totalTokens, totalCost

Example usage

codexbar                          # text, respects app toggles
codexbar --provider claude        # force Claude
codexbar --provider all           # query all providers (honors your logins/toggles)
codexbar --format json --pretty   # machine output
codexbar --format json --provider both
codexbar cost                     # local cost usage (last 30 days + today)
codexbar cost --provider claude --format json --pretty
COPILOT_API_TOKEN=... codexbar --provider copilot --format json --pretty
codexbar --status                 # include status page indicator/description
codexbar --provider codex --source web --format json --pretty
codexbar --provider claude --account steipete@gmail.com
codexbar --provider claude --all-accounts --format json --pretty
codexbar --json-only --format json --pretty
codexbar --provider gemini --source api --format json --pretty
KILO_API_KEY=... codexbar --provider kilo --source api --format json --pretty
codexbar config validate --format json --pretty
codexbar config dump --pretty

Exit codes

  • 0: success
  • 2: provider missing (binary not on PATH)
  • 3: parse/format error
  • 4: CLI timeout
  • 1: unexpected failure

Notes

  • CLI uses the config file for enabled providers, ordering, and secrets.
  • Reset lines follow the in-app reset time display setting when available (default: countdown).
  • Text output uses ANSI colors when stdout is a rich TTY; disable with --no-color or NO_COLOR/TERM=dumb.
  • Copilot CLI queries require an API token via config apiKey or COPILOT_API_TOKEN.
  • Prefer Codex RPC first, then PTY fallback; Claude defaults to web with CLI fallback when cookies are missing.
  • Kilo text output splits identity into Plan: and Activity: lines; in --source auto, resolved CLI fetches add Note: Using CLI fallback.
  • Kilo auto-mode failures include a fallback-attempt summary line in text mode (API attempt then CLI attempt).
  • OpenAI web requires a signed-in chatgpt.com session in Safari, Chrome, or Firefox. No passwords are stored; CodexBar reuses cookies.
  • Safari cookie import may require granting CodexBar Full Disk Access (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access).
  • The openaiDashboard JSON field is normally sourced from the app’s cached dashboard snapshot; --source auto|web refreshes it live via WebKit using a per-account cookie store.
  • Future: optional --from-cache flag to read the menubar app’s persisted snapshot (if/when that file lands).
