# Track Usage for Coding Tools
This tutorial shows how to track usage and costs for AI-powered coding tools like Claude Code, Roo Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenAI Codex through LiteLLM.
Track requests, total costs, and user engagement metrics for each coding tool via User-Agent headers.
## Who This Is For
Central AI Platform teams providing developers access to coding tools through LiteLLM. Use this to monitor tool engagement and track individual user usage patterns.
## What LiteLLM Tracks
### Summary Metrics
- Cost per coding tool
- Successful requests and token usage per tool
### User Engagement Metrics
- Daily, weekly, and monthly active users for each User-Agent
## Quick Start
### 1. Connect Your Coding Tool to LiteLLM
Configure your coding tool to send requests through LiteLLM proxy with appropriate User-Agent headers.
### 2. Send Requests with User-Agent Headers
Ensure your coding tool includes identifying User-Agent headers in API requests.
### 3. Verify Tracking in LiteLLM Logs
Confirm that LiteLLM is properly tracking requests by checking logs for the expected User-Agent values.
### 4. View Usage Dashboard
Access the LiteLLM dashboard to view aggregated usage metrics and user engagement data.
## How LiteLLM Identifies Coding Tools
LiteLLM tracks coding tools by monitoring the `User-Agent` header in incoming API requests (`/chat/completions`, `/responses`, etc.). Each unique User-Agent is tracked separately for usage analytics.
### Example Request
Here's an example using `claude-cli` as the User-Agent:
```shell
curl -X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-H "User-Agent: claude-cli/1.0" \
-d '{"model": "claude-3-5-sonnet-latest", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}]}' \
http://localhost:4000/chat/completions
```
