# graykode/abtop

Like htop, but for AI coding agents. Monitor Claude    Code & Codex CLI sessions, tokens, context window,    rate limits, and ports in real-time.

## What it is
A terminal-based monitor (like htop/btop) for AI coding agent sessions such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode. It shows token usage, context window percentage, rate limits, child processes, and open ports in real time, read-only with no API keys.

## Use cases
- monitor claude code token usage in terminal
- watch context window usage across multiple ai agent sessions
- track rate limit quota for codex cli in real time
- find orphan ports opened by ai coding agents
- view all running ai agent sessions in one screen
- export agent session snapshot as json for scripts

## When to choose
- you run multiple AI coding agents across projects and want a single real-time dashboard
- you need read-only monitoring without API keys or auth
- you want cross-platform (macOS/Linux/Windows) native terminal monitoring of agent sessions

## When to avoid
- you need to control, configure, or send commands to agents rather than just observe them
- you monitor agents other than Claude Code, Codex CLI, or OpenCode
- you need historical metrics or long-term analytics rather than live snapshots
