Report Format

The eyes4ai report command produces a summary of AI activity and its relationship to committed code. This page explains each metric.

Sample output

Period: last 7 days

  Sessions:              8  (codex: 5, claude: 3)
  Turns:                 42 (codex: 28, claude: 14)
  AI-active days:        5 / 7
  Estimated cost:        $12.84  (codex: $7.44, claude: $5.40)
  AI-linked commits:     11 / 18 (61%)
  Avg cost per commit:   $1.17

  Previous period cost:  $9.50
  Previous AI commits:   7 / 15 (47%)

Metrics

• Sessions — unique AI coding sessions in the period. A session starts when you open an AI tool and ends when you close it or it times out.
• Turns — number of user prompts submitted across all sessions.
• AI-active days — days with at least one significant AI event.
• Estimated cost — token-based cost estimate using published API pricing.
• AI-linked commits — commits that had at least one AI session active within 2 hours before the commit, shown as a fraction of total commits with percentage.
• Avg cost per commit — average estimated cost per AI-linked commit.

When multiple tools are used, per-tool breakdowns appear inline.

When data exists for the previous period of the same length, previous period cost and AI commit percentage are shown for comparison.
