Stats and Cost (bolt stats)

​

Basic usage

bolt stats                       # summary for the current project
bolt stats --days 7              # last seven days
bolt stats --days 7 --models     # break down by model

​

What it shows

• Total input, output, and cache tokens.
• Estimated cost per provider (using provider pricing tables at the time of the run).
• Per-model, per-agent, and per-day breakdowns depending on flags.

​

Reducing cost

• Use --variant minimal or --variant low on reasoning-heavy models. See Providers & Models.
• Prefer the ask or plan agent for exploration; they’re read-only and avoid tool-heavy loops.
• Switch to a smaller model with bolt models for tasks that don’t need frontier capability.
