Copilot Usage Analytics Skill

Estimate per-session Copilot CLI cost, analyze model-routing efficiency, track agent dispatch patterns, and document which GitHub Copilot usage APIs exist.

Templates in This Skill

Template	Purpose
templates/session-cost-estimate-template.md	Per-session cost breakdown by dispatch, model, and estimated token usage
templates/model-routing-recommendation-template.md	Recommendations for right-sizing model selection per task type
templates/api-landscape.md	Reference map of GitHub Copilot usage APIs — what exists, what is missing, and workarounds

Pairing

Pair with session-analysis when a user asks for session metrics (top tools, assistant message volume, model changes, average turns). Use this skill to translate those findings into cost estimates, expensive-dispatch ranking, and routing ROI.
