Sonnet 4 Token Breakdown
Developers have consumed 1.2M tokens through Sonnet 4, split between 166 input tokens (prompts, context, files) and 15.9k output tokens (generated code, explanations, edits).
Prompt caching has processed 103.3k cache creation tokens and 1.0M cache read tokens. Cache reads are significantly cheaper per token, reducing the effective cost for developers with repeated context.
The higher output-to-input ratio suggests the model generates more content than it receives, typical for code generation and completion tasks..
