Token Cost Meter
Live token usage, model-aware USD cost and prompt-cache savings in the Hermes Desktop status bar, with a persistent per-day ledger that survives restarts.
Good to know before installing
Desktop only; no network calls of its own (prices come from the gateway's model.options and a bundled models.dev rate table); stores per-day token totals, per-session counters and last-known rates in its own Desktop plugin storage; costs are list-price estimates, not billing data.
From the plugin's catalog listing.
How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install token-cost-meter - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable token-cost-meter - Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.
Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
