SessionCost

Fix a problem

/sessioncost does nothing

Section titled “/sessioncost does nothing”

Restart the agent after installing. Agents read their skills when they start.

“sessioncost is not recognized” (Windows)

Section titled ““sessioncost is not recognized” (Windows)”

Use python -m sessioncost instead of sessioncost. This is common with the Microsoft Store Python.

Windows says scripts are disabled

Section titled “Windows says scripts are disabled”

Run the install line this way instead:

Terminal window
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kish21/sessioncost/main/install.ps1 | iex"

“git not found” when adding the plugin

Section titled ““git not found” when adding the plugin”

Use the one-line install instead. It needs neither Git nor Python.

Cursor shows no plugin after adding the repository

Section titled “Cursor shows no plugin after adding the repository”

Some Cursor versions import a repository without listing its plugins. Use the one-line install.

Update

Section titled “Update”
  • Any install: /sessioncost update in a chat, or sessioncost update in a terminal, then restart your agent. Pasting the install line again works too.
  • Installed with pip: python -m pip install -U sessioncost, then python -m sessioncost setup.
  • Claude Code plugin: /plugin → Marketplaces → sessioncost → Update, then restart Claude Code. Or turn on Enable auto-update there once.

The guard asked or blocked something it should not have

Section titled “The guard asked or blocked something it should not have”

Say no (or let it stay blocked) and carry on. If a step your project needs keeps being asked, list it in the project’s .sessioncost-allow file. See Guard settings.
