What is metered, and where to read it: dashboard, CLI, MCP and API.
| Where | What | Who |
|---|---|---|
| Dashboard Usage page | The month by day, per meter, per sandbox and per template | Every role |
| Dashboard Billing page | Plan, rates and invoice drafts | Owners and admins |
anona-compute usage | Meters, totals, the part not yet rated, a projection for the current month, the most expensive sandboxes | Browser sign-in of any role, or a key with usage:read |
anona-compute usage --billing | Plan, rates and invoices | Owners and admins, or a key with billing:read |
MCP tool get_usage | The same as anona-compute usage, for agents | As above |
GET /v1/usage, GET /v1/billing | The JSON documents behind all of the above | As above |
usage:read, Full access has both. Keys created before these scopes existed do not have them.

| Meter | Counted when |
|---|---|
| Active vCPU-hours | The sandbox’s CPU is busy, while it runs |
| Resident GiB-hours | Memory the sandbox actually holds, while it runs |
| Snapshot storage | A paused sandbox’s snapshot exists |
| Egress | Bytes leave the sandbox to the internet |
