How are you keeping Claude Code token spend visible while you build?

I like Claude Code a lot, but one thing still feels weirdly opaque to me: token burn while you are deep in a session.

When I am iterating fast, the bill usually shows up after the fact. By then I already made the expensive choices. Long context, repeated retries, and bouncing between models can get surprisingly costly before you really notice it.

How do you decide what features should be free and what should be paid?

Let me start from the creator s perspective:
I personally don t have a product (apart from hiring people for creative work or offering personal consultations).

But as a creator, I constantly share content, insights, and information, value that helps me build trust (for free). Based on that perceived expertise, people eventually decide to work with me (a paid service).
