Numbers only, measured from my own local Claude Code session logs (2026-10-12 to 2026-10-18, 7-day daily average). Calls per day: 2,772 Cache-read tokens per day: 315M Output tokens per day: 2.4M Share of cost by slice: Slice Share of cost Base (system prompt + tool list) 43.3% Model replies 25.5%

Numbers only, measured from my own local Claude Code session logs (2026-10-12 to 2026-10-18, 7-day daily average).
Cost weights: input 1, cache write 1.25, cache read 0.1, output 5 (input token = 1). Takeaway: the biggest slice is the fixed context that gets re-read on every call, so shorter sessions help more than trimming tool output.
