Usage Analysis
Use when the user asks an interpretive question about their Claude Code token spend — budget status across the 5h / 7d / Sonnet-7d billing buckets, which agents/skills/projects are eating their budget, model-distribution drift, or what to change to reduce spend. Regenerates the `claude-prospector` dashboard as needed and reads the embedded data to answer. Do NOT use for bare "regenerate the dashboard" requests with no question attached (use `usage-dashboard` instead). Trigger phrases: "am I close to my Claude limit", "how much Sonnet am I using", "where are my Claude tokens going", "what's eating my Claude budget", "which agent uses the most tokens", "why is my Claude spend so high".
