I'm bringing CodexBar's telemetry in line with Bar Telemetry Spec v1 so Bar UI can read it.

What changes

  • Resource and scope: service.name is now lowercase codexbar, and the resource adds host.name, os.type=darwin and bar.spec.version=1. The scope version is the app version.
  • Limits: bar.limit.utilization and bar.limit.resets_at cover every rate-limit window, with limit.id set to <bucket id>:<window minutes>. My account reports only a weekly window, so I see codex:10080. When a window comes without a length, the ID falls back to <bucket id>:primary|secondary and limit.window.duration_minutes is left out.
  • Tokens: bar.tokens replaces the codex.tokens.* snapshot gauges. It's a cumulative Sum per model and token.type, built by the new SessionTokenScanner from per-session cursors once tracking starts.
    • Cursors are keyed by session ID. Archiving a session doesn't replay it, and pruned sessions never lower the total.
    • Repeated totals are skipped.
    • History that forks and subagents copy from their parent isn't counted twice.
    • The model comes from each turn's turn_context.
    • input excludes cached input.
    • State lives in ~/Library/Application Support/CodexBar/telemetry-state.json. Turning tracking off deletes it, so the next start gets a new start time.
  • Perks: there's a bar.perk.available gauge for reset credits. A redeemed credit produces bar.perk.gone with reason used, and one that disappears past its expiry gets expired.
  • Events: names now go in eventName instead of the body. The new events are bar.tracking.started, bar.limit.appeared/reset/disappeared and bar.perk.available/gone, and limit and perk observations persist so a relaunch doesn't repeat them. The existing codex.* metrics and events stay as app-specific extras.
  • Links: codexbar://telemetry?enabled=&interval=&retention=&folder= takes any subset of its parameters. It shows a native confirmation with one line per change (Interval: 5 min → 15 min) and applies on Apply. One invalid value rejects the whole link. codexbar://settings opens Settings.
  • docs/telemetry.md now points at the spec and covers the CodexBar-specific mappings.

Testing

79 tests pass, including new suites for the token scanner, spec mapping, events and URL parsing. I installed it and checked the real output on my machine:

  • The weekly limit and 3 reset-credit perks show up correctly.
  • After a real turn, the token counts (13,450 uncached input, 13,184 cached, 28 output, 21 reasoning) match the raw session line.
  • The counters and their start time survive a relaunch with no second bar.tracking.started.
  • The state file is 0600.
  • The codexbar:// links work: the confirmation appears and Apply writes the defaults, an out-of-range value is rejected with tracking left on, and settings opens the window.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Telemetry now records Codex token usage alongside usage limits and reset-credit activity, and exports daily data in the Bar Telemetry format.
    • Open settings or update telemetry options using codexbar:// links. Changes from telemetry links require confirmation.
  • Updates
    • Token counts start when recording is enabled and restart when recording is turned off and on.
    • Disabling telemetry clears saved tracking data.

Bar UI reads CodexBar's telemetry and drops records that don't follow the
spec, so the files now carry what it expects:

- Resource attributes: service.name codexbar, host.name, os.type and
  bar.spec.version 1. The scope version is the app version.
- bar.limit.utilization and bar.limit.resets_at for each Codex window,
  keyed <bucket id>:<window minutes>.
- bar.tokens, a cumulative Sum per model and token type, counted with
  per-session cursors from the moment tracking starts. Totals persist in
  Application Support, so pruned sessions never lower them.
- bar.perk.available for reset credits, plus events in eventName:
  bar.tracking.started, bar.limit.appeared/reset/disappeared and
  bar.perk.available/gone.
- codexbar://telemetry and codexbar://settings links, with a confirmation
  before any change is applied.

The codex.tokens.* snapshot gauges and their reader are gone; the other
codex.* records stay as app-specific extras.

Walkthrough

CodexBar now scans session token usage and records limit, reset-credit, and token telemetry. The recorder persists tracking state. The app also registers and handles codexbar:// links for opening settings and requesting telemetry-setting changes.

Changes

Session token scanning

Adds incremental scanning of Codex session and archived-session files, including token categorization and copied-history filtering. Removes the prior local token reader and its tests.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 20297

Rare token records can overstate usage, and repeated settings links can stack confirmation dialogs. Both issues are bounded, but should be fixed or accepted before merging.

Review comments at @Sources/CodexBar/URLCommandRouter.swift:
- Around line 9-13: Update URLCommandRouter.handle to prevent a second telemetry
alert from opening while the first is presented: track the alert’s presentation
state and ignore or queue incoming links until the modal alert closes, then
clear the state. Keep application(_:open:) routing URLs through the existing
handler.

Review comments at @Sources/CodexBarCore/SessionTokenScanner.swift:
- Around line 239-253: Update the usage fallback in the token-count handling:
when `cursor.lastTotal` is nil and the cursor started from a baseline, store the
current `total` as `lastTotal` and skip counting this row. Keep `usage = total`
only for sessions read from offset 0, and preserve delta calculation when a
previous total exists.

- Keep a new baseline even when the first log write fails, and retry
  bar.tracking.started until it lands, so no tokens are lost.
- Pause recording if turning tracking off couldn't delete the state,
  instead of counting tokens used while it was off.
- Never treat a running total as new usage when the total before the
  baseline couldn't be found.
- Drop oversized non-token lines as they stream in rather than
  buffering them whole.
- Refresh a reset credit's expiry while it stays available.
- Ignore codexbar:// links while an alert is open, and let each
  settings draft follow only its own setting.
- Skip copied fork history by the explicit ordinal boundary
  (history_base, forked_from_ordinal_exclusive) before falling back to
  the creation time, since copies can carry new timestamps.
- Keep reset-credit observations per account, so switching accounts
  doesn't read as the old account's credits going.
- Only announce a new credit when the available count rises; a capped
  list rotating which credits it shows stays silent.
- Start tracking (and write bar.tracking.started) on whichever path sees
  data first, so no perk event precedes it.
- Report a failed token baseline as a warning instead of blocking the
  account telemetry.
