Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

We currently have a context breakdown in the Web UI:

I propose adding a similar breakdown for tool calls. In my workflows, most tokens are consumed by tool calls, and I have identified many "inefficient" calls that could be optimized.

Examples of optimization:

Builds: Instructing the LLM to build my project in quiet mode reduced token usage from 15k to 100 tokens.
Jira MCP: I have bloated jira instance, and default attlasian MCP returns A LOT of unrelated things in response. Changing this to self made jira mcp massively reduced token usage.

Proposal:
Add a "Tool Breakdown" section (visualized below) to track which tools consume the most tokens. This visibility will help users refine their instructions to reduce overhead.

Benefits:
Reducing token usage minimizes context rot and generally improves the quality of the model's responses.

Mockup:

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

  • #6152: Session context usage (similar to /context in Claude) - proposes a TUI dialog showing context window breakdown
  • #10575: Add /context command to display session token usage - requests visibility of token usage details
  • #5555: Session-specific stats command and exit summary - proposes session statistics with token usage breakdown
  • #10354: Near-Real-Time Token and Cost Visibility - requests live token consumption display with cost details

Feel free to ignore if your specific request requires tool-specific breakdown beyond general context visibility.
