Visualize Claude metrics
Send this guide to your coding agent.
Prerequisite: Install Port MCP
Open plan mode. Implement this Port guide in my org via MCP: https://docs.port.io/guides/all/visualize-claude-metrics Goal: get the guide's core flow working end-to-end in my org; adapting it to fit my existing setup takes priority over matching the guide 1:1. Plan: 1. Confirm MCP is connected, in the right org, with sufficient permissions. 2. Diff the guide's data model (blueprints, properties, relations, actions, agents, automations, integrations, secrets) against mine. 3. Propose adaptations for gaps, reusing existing blueprints/relations over guide-named duplicates. 4. Flag what needs a UI click, credential, or secret from me, testing MCP capability empirically before ruling anything out. 5. Stop on any blocker and give me options. Approving this plan authorizes the writes it lists; pause only for writes beyond what's listed. Build: - Extend blueprint schema additively when upserting; don't remove or overwrite existing properties, and treat type conflicts as a blocker, not an auto-fix. - List any mock data in the plan, minimal and labeled mock; once approved, seed it without re-asking, and tell me what you seeded. - For anything the guide writes downstream (e.g. a webhook target), use a real entity, not a mock. - For pages/widgets, use the real page identifier from the app URL, not a guessed slug. - When you hit a UI step confirmed (not assumed) unsupported via MCP, pause, give exact clicks, then resume via MCP. - Validate and give links after each meaningful step (only a tool-returned URL, no guessed paths); don't proceed if the last run wasn't a success. Done: - Confirm the guide's expected output exists and runs in Port. - Summarize adaptations, seeded data, what was mocked or skipped, remaining UI steps, and how to verify.
This guide demonstrates how to set up a monitoring dashboard to gain insights into your Claude API usage using Port. You'll learn how to visualize key metrics like token consumption, costs, model distribution, cache efficiency, and track Claude Code activity over time.
Common use cases
- Monitor Claude API token consumption trends.
- Track API costs and optimize spending across models.
- Analyze model distribution to understand which Claude models are used most.
- Monitor cache efficiency to optimize costs.
- Track Claude Code sessions, commits, and pull requests.
Prerequisites
This guide assumes the following:
- You have a Port account and have completed the onboarding process.
- Port's Claude AI integration is installed and syncing data.
Create the dashboard
