Always show current session AI Credit usage next to the usage gauge

Start by locating the composer’s usage gauge and its hover popover, then trace where the current session’s AI Credit value is provided. Done means the current session usage is visible beside the gauge, either by default or through a clearly labeled setting, without removing the existing usage information.

What problem are you trying to solve?

Feature request

It would be helpful if the Copilot app could always display the current session's AI Credit usage next to the usage gauge, instead of requiring the user to hover over the icon to see it.

Current behavior

The composer shows a usage gauge/icon, but the actual AI Credit usage for the current session is only visible when hovering over it.

For example:

327 AI Credits

is hidden inside the hover popover.

Requested behavior

Please provide an option to keep the current session's AI Credit usage permanently visible next to the usage gauge.

For example:

◔ 327 AIC

or:

327 AI Credits

This could either be the default behavior or an optional setting such as:

Always show session AI Credit usage

Why this is useful

AI Credits are a consumable resource, and the amount used by a session can vary significantly depending on the model, reasoning effort, Autopilot usage, and the amount of work performed by agents.

When running longer sessions, I frequently check the current session's AI Credit usage to understand how expensive different tasks and workflows are.

Having to move the mouse over the usage icon every time adds unnecessary friction and makes it harder to monitor credit consumption while an agent is working.

The usage gauge already has this information, so displaying the numeric value alongside it would make cost monitoring much easier without adding much UI complexity.

Additional context

This would be especially useful for users who:

• compare AI Credit consumption between different models or reasoning levels;
• run long Autopilot / agent sessions;
• want to understand the cost of individual development tasks;
• actively manage AI Credit usage under a Business or organization plan.
