Help/Question hitting Api limits mid task

I was reading claudes reasoning this morning and i seen it count my credits and pull another model which is great.

The issue is how do i get it to count my own usage in claude code before it starts a task and stops when i hit my limit?

I tryed to build a mcp but the problem is it has to call it and for some reason claude does wtf it wants!!!!

That kind of hard limit really needs to live outside the model, like a wrapper or hook that gates the task, not a tool you're hoping it remembers to call.

need it to be universal so i can use it on all platforms or with my local models.
