Overview

Period: 2026-04-19 to 2026-04-20
Runs analyzed: 30 (29 had token data)
Total tokens: 8,949,198 raw · 10,776,131 effective (cost-normalized)
Estimated total cost: $0.00 (api-proxy cost tracking not yet emitting estimated_cost)
Total Actions minutes: 222 min
Total errors: 4 · Warnings: 0

💡 All token data sourced from token_usage_summary firewall telemetry. estimated_cost is $0 for all runs — cost calculation may not yet be wired to the api-proxy output. Effective tokens (cache-adjusted) are used for ranking.

*CLI Flag Consistency Checker: token_usage field was null; tokens derived from token_usage_summary (input: 654K + output: 13K).


🔍 Optimization Opportunities

  1. Weekly Test Coverage Improver — 1,384K tokens/run, 29 requests, 227s LLM time

    • Highest single-run token count. With 1,296K cache-read tokens (94% cache hit rate), caching is already working well.
    • Review if all 29 LLM requests are necessary or if some can be pre-computed deterministically.
  2. Build Test Suite — avg 618K tokens/run (2 runs)

    • Large per-run average. 731K and 319K cache-read tokens across the two runs — cache efficiency varies.
    • Consider whether test analysis prompts can be made more concise.
  3. Documentation Maintainer — 799K tokens in a single run, 22 requests

    • High request count (22) for a single run suggests iterative analysis. 745K cache-read tokens (93% cache rate) — very efficient.
    • Low output (5K output tokens vs 794K input) suggests mostly reading. Consider reducing context window fed per request.
  4. Smoke Services — 2 errors in 4 runs (50% error rate) ⚠️

    • Highest error rate of any workflow. Worth investigating reliability issues.
  5. CLI Flag Consistency Checker — 1 error in 1 run, token_usage field null

    • Check if api-proxy is correctly populating token_usage in structured output.

Cache Efficiency Summary

Cache hit rates (cache-read / total-input) across workflows with token data:

Workflow Cache-Read Tokens Input Tokens Cache Rate
Weekly Test Coverage Improver 1,296K 1,368K 94%
Documentation Maintainer 745K 794K 94%
Firewall Issue Dispatcher (latest) 459K 500K 92%
Daily Claude Token Optimization Advisor 355K 408K 87%
CI/CD Gap Assessment 289K 334K 87%
Build Test Suite (run 1) 732K 856K 86%
Smoke Copilot BYOK varies ~85%
CLI Flag Consistency Checker 588K 654K 90%
Pelis Agent Factory Advisor 370K 443K 83%
Daily Security Review 339K 412K 82%

Overall cache efficiency is excellent across the board — system prompts and context are being reused effectively via prompt caching.

Workflows Without Token Data
  • Daily Copilot Token Usage Analyzer (this run) — token_usage: 0, no token_usage_summary. Expected for current run.
  • CLI Flag Consistency Checkertoken_usage field was null. Token data available in token_usage_summary (663K tokens), so the firewall is tracking correctly; the top-level field aggregation may have a bug.

Historical Trend

This is the first Copilot token usage report — no prior reports found for comparison. Future reports will track week-over-week changes per workflow.
