Ask Claude
A plain question about this account's own figures, answered by Ask Claude from the same tools every other page here reads — never a guess, and never a number it invented — with a chart where one earns its place. Ten a month, included on every + Claude plan; the two tiles below are the allowance, not a business figure.
Questions left this period
How many of this billing period's ten questions have not yet been spent.
Good: Not something to spend down before it expires — read it beside "of 10 included this month" underneath. Reaching zero costs nothing extra; the allowance simply refills the moment the next period starts, with no job needed to reset it.
From: Ask::remaining() in src/Ask.php: Ask::allowance() minus Ask::spent(), never negative.
Asked this period
How many questions in the current period actually reached a verified answer.
Good: Read together with "Questions left" above — the two always add up to the ten. If this looks lower than how many questions were actually typed in, the gap is questions that were declined, failed, or came back with nothing checkable — none of those cost a place in the ten, so none of them raise this count.
From: Ask::spent() in src/Ask.php: a COUNT of ai_prompts rows with status = "ok" since the period's own start — Ask::periodStart(), anchored on tenant_billing.period_end.
