Tracking Usage
The Usage Reports dashboard provides visibility into credit consumption across your team.
The Usage Reports dashboard shows credit consumption across your team
- Credit consumption by agent and time period
- Usage graphs showing trends over time
- Daily averages for credit consumption
- Top consumers — see which agents use the most credits
Setting Usage Limits
Protect your credit balance by setting limits on how much each agent can consume.
Usage limits help prevent runaway agents from consuming all your credits
How Limits Work
1
Set a default limit
Establish a baseline limit that applies to all agents automatically.
2
Customize per agent
Override the default for specific agents that need higher or lower limits.
3
Monitor notifications
Receive alerts when agents approach their limits.
When Limits Are Reached
When an agent reaches its usage limit:- The agent pauses automatically
- No additional credits are consumed
- You receive a notification
- All data and configurations remain intact
- You can increase the limit or reset it to resume
Optimizing Credit Usage
Several factors affect how many credits your agents use:| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Frequency | Running every few minutes vs. hourly makes a big difference |
| Context size | Trim instructions to only what’s essential |
| Data storage | Store info in documents for selective retrieval, not in instructions |
| Instruction complexity | Simplify logic and reduce unnecessary loops |
| Model selection | Different models have different costs |
