+
+This document tracks custom features and modifications added to the PAI (Personal AI Infrastructure) environment.
+
+## Energy & Carbon Footprint Tracking
+
+**Added:** 2025-12-07
+**Status:** ✅ Active
+**Toggle:** `PAI_ENV_METRICS=1` in settings.json
+
+### Overview
+
+Real-time energy consumption and carbon footprint tracking for LLM usage, integrated into both the Claude Code status line and Observability dashboard.
+
+### Features
+
+**Status Line Display (when enabled):**
+```
+💰 Cost: $X.XX  ⚡ Energy: X.XX Wh  🌍 Carbon: X.XXg CO₂
+```
+
+**Observability Dashboard:**
+- 2x2 grid showing: Total Tokens, Cost, Energy, Carbon
+- Automatic calculation based on model usage (Haiku/Sonnet/Opus)
+- Color-coded cards with gradient backgrounds
+
+### Technical Implementation
+
+#### Calculation Methodology
+
+Based on MIT research ([arxiv.org/abs/2310.03003](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.03003)):
+- **Formula:** Carbon = Energy (kWh) × Carbon Intensity (gCO2/kWh)
+- **Energy:** Tokens × Model Energy per Token × PUE
+
+**Model Energy Consumption (per token in Wh):**
+- Haiku (~20B params): 0.0003 Wh
+- Sonnet (~70B params): 0.0007 Wh
+- Opus (~2T params): 0.001 Wh
+
+**Constants:**
+- PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness): 1.2
+- Carbon Intensity: 240 gCO2/kWh (EU average, configurable)
+
+#### Files Modified
+
+**Status Line:**
+- `.claude/statusline-command.sh` - Updated LINE 3 to show Cost/Energy/Carbon
+- `.claude/lib/energy-calculations.sh` - New calculation library
+
+**Observability Dashboard:**
+- `.claude/skills/Observability/apps/client/src/components/widgets/TokenUsageWidget.vue`
+  - Added energy and carbon summary cards
+  - Added `calculateEnergyAndCarbon()` function
+  - Added formatting functions: `formatEnergy()`, `formatCarbon()`
+  - Updated CSS for 2x2 grid layout with color-coded cards
+- `.claude/skills/Observability/apps/client/src/components/LivePulseChart.vue`
+  - Added energy and carbon display in top right corner
+  - Added computed properties for real-time calculation
+  - Added `formatEnergy()` and `formatCarbon()` helpers
+
+**Hooks:**
+- `.claude/hooks/capture-all-events.ts` - Updated to use local timezone instead of hardcoded LA timezone
+  - Changed `timestamp_pst` to `timestamp_local`
+  - Auto-detects system timezone using `Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone`
+
+**Settings:**
+- `.claude/settings.json` - Added environment variables:
+  - `PAI_ENV_METRICS=1` - Enable/disable environmental metrics
+  - `PAI_CARBON_INTENSITY=240` - Carbon intensity in gCO2/kWh (configurable by region)
+
+### Configuration
+
+**Enable environmental metrics:**
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "PAI_ENV_METRICS": "1",
+    "PAI_CARBON_INTENSITY": "240"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Carbon Intensity Values by Region:**
+- EU: 240 gCO2/kWh
+- US West: 240 gCO2/kWh
+- US East: 429 gCO2/kWh
+- Global Average: 400 gCO2/kWh
+
+**Disable environmental metrics:**
+```json
+{
+  "env": {
+    "PAI_ENV_METRICS": "0"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Research Sources
+
+1. **MIT Study:** [Power, Latency and Cost of LLM Inference Systems](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.03003)
+   - LLaMA 65B: 3-4 Joules per token
+   - Energy scales with model sharding
+   - Power capping saves 23% energy with 6.7% performance impact
+
+2. **Google 2025 Data:** [AI Footprint Update](https://www.sustainabilitybynumbers.com/p/ai-footprint-august-2025)
+   - Median query: 0.24 Wh, 0.03g CO₂ (current)
+   - 44-fold reduction in emissions over 12 months
+
+3. **Hugging Face:** [CO₂ Emissions Analysis](https://huggingface.co/blog/leaderboard-emissions-analysis)
+   - Reasoning models: 50x more CO₂ than concise models
+
+4. **Academic Research:**
+   - [Quantifying LLM Inference Energy](https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.11417)
+   - [Frontiers: Energy Costs of AI Communication](https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/communication/articles/10.3389/fcomm.2025.1572947/full)
+
+### Model Accuracy
+
+Our calculations are **conservative estimates** based on:
+- ✅ Peer-reviewed research (MIT, arxiv.org/abs/2310.03003)
+- ✅ Industry-standard PUE (1.2 for modern data centers)
+- ✅ Regional carbon intensity data
+- ⚠️ Anthropic parameter counts are unofficial estimates
+- ⚠️ Assumes similar architecture to LLaMA models
+
+**Validation:** MIT measured LLaMA 65B at 3-4 J/token (0.00083-0.00111 Wh/token). Our Opus estimate (0.001 Wh/token) aligns with their findings.
+
+### Usage Examples
+
+**Example 1: 100K tokens with Sonnet**
+- Energy: 100,000 × 0.0007 × 1.2 = 84 Wh
+- Carbon: 0.084 kWh × 240 = 20.16g CO₂
+
+**Example 2: Daily usage (1M tokens, mixed models)**
+- Haiku (300K): 300,000 × 0.0003 × 1.2 = 108 Wh
+- Sonnet (600K): 600,000 × 0.0007 × 1.2 = 504 Wh
+- Opus (100K): 100,000 × 0.001 × 1.2 = 120 Wh
+- **Total:** 732 Wh (0.732 kWh) = 175.68g CO₂
+
+### Environmental Impact Context
+
+**What does 175g CO₂ equal?**
+- 🚗 Driving a car 1 km (0.6 miles)
+- 💡 Running a 60W bulb for 12 hours
+- ☕ Making 10 cups of coffee
+
+### Future Enhancements
+
+- [ ] Add real-time energy tracking per session
+- [ ] Historical energy/carbon trends chart
+- [ ] Per-agent energy breakdown
+- [ ] Custom carbon intensity profiles
+- [ ] Integration with Anthropic API for actual model metrics
+- [ ] Power capping recommendations
+- [ ] Carbon offset calculator
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+**Metrics not showing:**
+1. Check `PAI_ENV_METRICS=1` in `.claude/settings.json`
+2. Ensure `bc` is installed: `which bc`
+3. Restart Claude Code session
+
+**Inaccurate values:**
+1. Verify `PAI_CARBON_INTENSITY` matches your region
+2. Check model detection in status line
+3. Review token counts with `ccusage`
