✨ Features

Feature	Description
📊 Settings dashboard	Settings → llmtrim Stats: KPI cards (You paid / Would have cost / Saved today / Saved this week + tokens trimmed, requests, net saved re-priced), daemon health badge + version, per-model table (model / requests / saved % / USD)
🎠 Configurable carousel	Composer strip under the chat input: choose Rotating (cycle one stat at a time) or Static (show every selected stat at once, fixed) — pick exactly which stats appear; refreshed every 5s
💵 Four money cards	You paid (`money.paid_usd`), Would have cost (`money.would_have_usd`), Saved today (`money.saved_today_usd`), Saved this week (prorated: current-week (Monday-start) token share × lifetime `money.saved_usd` — llmtrim reports no weekly USD)
🔗 Lives off the real CLI	The host runs `llmtrim status --json` (the same command as `llmtrim status`) via the `subprocess` service — no ledger-file parsing, always consistent with the CLI
🩺 Daemon health at a glance	The dashboard shows a green/amber badge (daemon healthy / stopped) plus the binary version
🌗 Theme-aware	All colors use `--dsw-alias-*` design tokens; follows light/dark automatically
♨️ Survives restarts	Real profile-bundled plugin: install once with `dsh plugin add`, auto-loads on every DSH boot — no per-session define, no cordis_define

🏗️ How it works

llmtrim interceptor (daemon :43117) ──writes──> ~/.local/share/llmtrim/tracking.db
                                  │
Host half (DSH process)           ▼
  └─ subprocess service: resolveExecutable('llmtrim') → spawn llmtrim status --json
  └─ reshape → { daemon, totals, money, cost, byModel }
  └─ settings namespace `llmtrim-stats` { mode, staticStats } (carousel config)
  └─ webServer routes: GET /llmtrim-stats/api (snapshot incl. config)
                       PUT /llmtrim-stats/config (persist carousel choice)
                                  │
Client bundle (browser)           ▼
  └─ single 5s poller → fetch(/llmtrim-stats/api) → snapshot fan-out to two seats
       ├─ settings.section (id llmtrim-stats)      → full dashboard + carousel config
       └─ conversation.composer.dock (id llmtrim-carousel) → rotating or static strip

Pure pull from the CLI: no ledger parsing, no events, no file watching; llmtrim missing or status --json failing → {ok:false,error}, UI shows unavailable, polling self-recovers.
Read-only: the plugin never writes to llmtrim's directory or ledger.
Persistence: ships dsh.bundle (cordis.patch.yml) + dsh.client (exports["./client"], bundled) so it installs as a real profile plugin that the DSH client-modules scanner loads on every boot.

🚀 Quick start

Standard install: `dsh plugin add` (persists across restarts)

Install the package from this GitHub repo:

# local directory (from the parent of this repo):
dsh plugin --profile web add ./llmtrim-stats-plugin

# or directly from GitHub (any DSH machine):
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Zenjibad/llmtrim-stats-plugin
# or:
dsh plugin --profile web add git+https://github.com/Zenjibad/llmtrim-stats-plugin.git

dsh plugin add is a pnpm add into the profile plus a dsh.profile.bundles reconcile: seeing this package's dsh.bundle declaration, it appends llmtrim-stats-plugin to the bundle stack. Restart DSH, then hard-refresh the browser tab (Ctrl+F5). On boot the client-modules scanner resolves exports["./client"] and the dashboard + carousel appear. No per-session define, survives restarts.

> ⚠️ Important: after installing (or updating) a client plugin, a hard page refresh (Ctrl+F5) is required — the DSH client HMR only hot-swaps already-loaded bundles and does not pull in new bundles into an open tab.

Manual profile mount (alternative)

1. git clone https://github.com/Zenjibad/llmtrim-stats-plugin.git (any location). 2. Add to ~/.dsh/profiles/web/package.json dependencies: "llmtrim-stats-plugin": "link:<repo-path>", then pnpm install in the profile dir. 3. Restart DSH.

Requirements

llmtrim installed and on PATH (npm i -g @llmtrim/cli — the plugin resolves it via the subprocess service; override with LLMTRIM_BIN if it's somewhere unusual).
The llmtrim daemon should be running for live numbers; the plugin works (showing stopped/zero) without it.

⚙️ Configuration

The carousel is configurable from the Settings page (persisted in the llmtrim-stats settings namespace, written via PUT /llmtrim-stats/config):

Setting	Values	Effect
Mode	`rotating` (default) / `static`	Rotating cycles one stat at a time through the selected stats every 4 s; Static shows every selected stat at once, fixed (no rotation)
Stats	9 checkboxes (all on by default)	Which stats appear in the carousel: Saved today, Saved total, You paid, Would have cost, Saved this week, Tokens trimmed, Requests, Input saved, Round-trip

Fixed constants in source:

Knob	Location	Default
HTTP routes	`src/index.ts`	`GET /llmtrim-stats/api`, `PUT /llmtrim-stats/config`
Executable resolution	`resolveLlmtrim` in `src/index.ts`	`subprocess.resolveExecutable('llmtrim')`, fallback `LLMTRIM_BIN`, then the npm win32-x64 path
Poll interval	`POLL_MS` in `src/client/index.tsx`	5 s
Carousel cadence	`CAROUSEL_MS` in `src/client/index.tsx`	4 s
Settings seat	`src/client/index.tsx`	`settings.section` id `llmtrim-stats`, order 80
Dock seat	`src/client/index.tsx`	`conversation.composer.dock` id `llmtrim-carousel`, order 15

❓ FAQ

Q: The dashboard/carousel is missing? A: Restart DSH (if the host half isn't mounted yet), then hard-refresh the browser tab (Ctrl+F5). New client bundles only appear on a full page reload — the HMR client does not add new bundles to an already-open tab.

Q: It says "llmtrim stats are unavailable"? A: The host couldn't run llmtrim status --json. Check llmtrim --version works in a shell; if it's not on PATH, set LLMTRIM_BIN to the absolute exe path and restart DSH.

Q: The carousel shows zeros / "daemon stopped"? A: The daemon isn't running (llmtrim start), or the ledger is empty. Start the daemon and the numbers populate on the next 5s poll.

Q: "Saved (proxy bills)" vs "Net saved (re-priced)" differ? A: Both come straight from llmtrim status --json — money.saved_usd (per-turn frozen rates) vs cost.net_saved_usd (re-priced at current list rates). They're different views of the same traffic; llmtrim's own CLI shows the same distinction.

Q: How is "Saved this week" computed? A: llmtrim reports money only for the lifetime (money.saved_usd) and today (money.saved_today_usd); its by_period rows carry tokens but no USD (daily 2026-08-19 keys by default). The plugin therefore prorates: input tokens this week (Monday-start) ÷ lifetime input tokens × lifetime saved. It updates as the ledger grows.

Q: Can I make the carousel show only one stat, or stop it rotating? A: Yes — Settings → llmtrim Stats → Carousel: set Mode to Static and tick exactly the stats you want. Static shows every selected stat at once (fixed, no rotation); a single tick pins it to that one stat. Rotating mode cycles one stat at a time through the ticked stats. A green "Saved ✓" appears after each change; the choice is persisted and survives restarts.

Q: How do I remove it? A: dsh plugin --profile web rm llmtrim-stats-plugin (or delete the profile dependency + bundle entry) and restart DSH.

⚠️ Security notes

Read-only: the plugin only runs llmtrim status --json and never writes to llmtrim's files or ledger.
Same-origin route: the client polls /llmtrim-stats/api on the DSH origin only.
No credentials: the plugin reads no API keys, tokens, or secrets — only the public savings snapshot.
Small outputs: status --json stdout is capped at 512 KB.
