| description | Use when estimating Copilot CLI session cost, analyzing model routing efficiency, or mapping available usage APIs. USE FOR: estimate Copilot session cost, analyze expensive agent dispatches, recommend cheaper model routing, audit Copilot workflow token usage, document GitHub Copilot usage APIs. DO NOT USE FOR: general product analytics dashboards, application performance monitoring, non-Copilot billing disputes. |

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.

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.
