AC openclaw-cost-guard
Track OpenClaw/Clawdbot token and cost usage from session JSONL logs (prefer real usage.cost when present), generate daily/weekly summaries and top expensive sessions, and run budget checks (exit code on breach). Use to monitor spend, enforce budgets via cron/alerts, and apply a token-saving playbook to reduce output/tool-call cost.

As a process C 54/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, inputs and preconditions
How to improve
- 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 54/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 100Steps. 13 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 627 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
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
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- +1No license
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 334: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 11 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 13 items
- +4Has examples (7 code blocks)
- +3All 1 scripts are documented
