Reporting Use Cases
The Input tokens (uncached) field is the part of the prompt that had to be processed from scratch. It is the most expensive kind of input token, so it is the one to watch.
Consumption trends: Chart it alongside cache reads to see whether growing usage is being absorbed by the cache or is genuinely new work.
Per-model comparison: Filter to
breakdown = SURFACE_MODELand group bymodel_refto see which models carry the heaviest prompts.Not available for Copilot IDE work: GitHub publishes tokens for the command line and desktop app only. An empty value on IDE records means not reported, not zero.
