**Ajustes > Uso** (Settings > Usage) shows what the app managed to measure of your work: a summary with
the totals and a reading per assistant.

## The totals

The summary brings three numbers:

- **Assistants started**
- **Working time**
- **Pull requests opened**

They give the dimension of the usage in the period read, not a productivity score.

## Per assistant

The second part opens the consumption per assistant — Claude, Codex, OpenCode and Grok.

Each panel shows what the app managed to read from that provider.

## The rule that avoids a scare

> **An empty counter is not an error.**

The numbers depend on two things:

1. **On the local capture** — what the app recorded on this machine.
2. **On the provider's availability** — what it exposes for reading.

When one of the two is missing, the panel stays empty or incomplete. That describes the reading, not your
usage.

## What these numbers are not

**The app is not your bill.** Elyra's reading and the provider's billing can diverge:

| Reason | Consequence |
|---|---|
| Different scope | The app may measure only what went through it |
| Different latency | The provider may consolidate later |
| Rounding | The totals are for reading, not for accounting |

**To know how much you owe, check the provider's account** — not this screen.

## Result

- You see the totals for the period and the consumption per assistant.
- You know when a panel is empty for lack of reading, and not for lack of usage.

## Limits

- **The totals are not equivalent to billing.** No cost decision should rest on this screen.
- **The coverage per provider varies.** Not every assistant exposes consumption reading.
