Editor Extension
Live token cost, a Session Graph, and offline coaching inside Cursor.
The extension reads ~/.promptconduit/events.jsonl on your
machine — no account, no network. Same binary the CLI bundles.
Install in Cursor
Open the Extensions pane (⇧⌘X / Ctrl+Shift+X),
search PromptConduit, and click Install. Cursor installs
from
Open VSX.
Or let the CLI sideload the same VSIX when you wire Cursor hooks:
promptconduit install cursor
Skip the extension with --no-extension. If the
cursor CLI is not on your PATH, open Cursor and run
Shell Command: Install 'cursor' command in PATH, then re-run
install. Hooks still install either way.
Requires the CLI
The extension tails the local event log the CLI writes. Install that first — see Installation.
curl -fsSL https://promptconduit.dev/install | bash promptconduit init

Works for Claude Code and Cursor sessions. For what the cost numbers mean and how they compare with other tools, see tracking Claude Code token usage and cost and Cursor AI spend by repo and model. Each coaching insight links to a guide explaining when it fires and what to change.
No editor?
promptconduit graph serves the same Session Graph in any
browser, still 100% local.
