[FEATURE]:Show subagent token usage in TUI token counter #22103
Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
Feature Request
Currently, the TUI displays token usage in the top-right corner, but this only reflects
the main session's token consumption. When the Task tool spawns subagents, their token
usage is not visible anywhere in the interface.
Proposed Behavior
Show subagent token usage either:
- As a separate counter (e.g.,
main: 12k | sub: 8k) - Or as a breakdown when hovering / expanding the token display
- Or include subagent tokens in the total counter with an indicator
Use Case
When using Task tool heavily (e.g., parallel agents for large tasks), it's hard to
understand the true cost of a session without subagent token visibility. This matters
for budget tracking and context management.

It will be really nice to see subagent usage in new era of token billing (instead of subscriptions).

All tokens need to be paid, so...
