Use Settings: Usage when you need to review AI usage

Problem / use case

If you need to review AI usage, Settings: Usage becomes fragile when the work behind open Settings, then Usage as an admin. and Review AI usage, provider activity, and quotas. is separated from AI chat, MCP connectors, and Keys settings.

What should be done conceptually

Settings: Usage works best when the settings admin decision, next action, and progress evidence stay close enough for review AI usage to remain visible.

TimeLens solution

TimeLens solves that by making Settings: Usage part of the same workspace as AI chat, MCP connectors, and Keys settings, so the feature helps the work move instead of becoming another isolated page.
