FAQ

Questions Token Counter and Budget Enforcer owners ask.

  • 01

    How are tokens estimated?

    Tokens are estimated using a deterministic character-to-token ratio: approximately 4 characters per token for English text and 3.5 characters per token for code blocks.

  • 02

    Can I set different limits for agents and conversations?

    Yes. You can use track_and_enforce_usage to apply specific limits for both the unique agent identifier and the specific conversation identifier.

  • 03

    How do I check my current usage?

    You can use the get_usage_summary capability to retrieve the cumulative token totals for a specific agent or conversation without consuming any new tokens.
