FAQ from Claude Usage Mcp

How does Claude Usage Mcp authenticate?

It uses the same OAuth token that Claude Code creates when you sign in with a Pro/Max subscription. No API keys, environment variables, or .env files are required.

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js 18 or later, macOS or Linux, and a Claude Code session logged in with a Pro or Max subscription.

Where does my usage data come from?

The server calls GET https://api.anthropic.com/api/oauth/usage with the stored OAuth token. It caches the response for 60 seconds and serves stale data if the endpoint rate‑limits the request.

Does Claude Usage Mcp work with API keys?

No. This server is for Pro/Max subscribers only. API users should use the official Usage and Cost API instead.

What happens if my token expires?

Restart Claude Code to trigger a fresh OAuth login. If you previously used claude setup-token or /login, the token may have the wrong scopes; delete the credentials file and restart Claude Code.
