AC api-cost-tracker

Track, analyze, and optimize AI API costs across OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, Google, and other LLM providers. Parses billing data, usage logs, or API responses to produce cost breakdowns by model, feature, and time period. Identifies optimization opportunities (model downgrades, caching, prompt compression). Use when asked to analyze API costs, track AI spending, optimize LLM usage, create cost reports, find expensive API calls, compare model pricing, set budget alerts, or audit API usage. Triggers on "API costs", "how much am I spending", "optimize API usage", "cost breakdown", "LLM spending", "token usage", "billing analysis", "reduce API costs", "budget tracking".

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Process rating: all ten parameters 64/100

    • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (api-cost-tracker) differs from the folder (ai-api-cost-tracker)
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, python) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
    • 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
    • 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
    • 100Steps. 18 steps
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 794 tokens
    • 100Running it twice. No mutating operations

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    Quality signals

    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 95.

    External checks

    ClawHub: clean
    This is a local API cost-reporting skill that handles sensitive billing exports, but the included code does not access credentials or make network calls.
