Check credit usage in Grok Build

Check credit usage in Grok Build

/usage opens credit usage (and billing management when available) for the signed-in Build session. Official: Modes and Commands.

Open usage

  1. Start or resume a Build session (grok or grok -c).
  2. Run:
/usage
  1. Read the credit / billing panel for the account on this login. Sign in first if the session has no credentials (/login or grok login — see Login to Grok Build with device code for headless hosts).

Context window vs account credits

Command What it shows
/usage Account credit usage / billing entry points
/context Context-window fill for the current conversation
/session-info Session metadata (includes context when you need a broader dump)

Context how-to: Check context usage in Grok Build. Weekly Build pool limits: Understand Grok Build weekly usage limits.

Pitfalls

  • /usage is the Build TUI surface. Grok Bot and grok.com consumer plans have separate usage UIs — do not assume one panel covers every Grok product.
  • Exhausted credits and a stuck Agent Computer are different failures. Bot-side “failed to respond” while usage is fine needs When “Bot failed to respond” needs a backend recovery.
