cost-optimization SKILL.md skillA

cost-optimization from int2t05/engineering-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add int2t05/engineering-skills/cost-optimization@git:20261015.f440cbb

Pins git:20261015.f440cbb in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Reduce measured cost while preserving required service quality. Triggers on "cost", "成本优化".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Cost Optimization

## When to use

- Reduce measured cost while preserving required service quality.

**Not for:** performance for latency; architecture for unbuilt systems.

## Steps

1. Establish comparable billing, workload and service-quality baselines; redact account details.

2. Attribute dominant controllable costs across actual compute, storage, network, services and model calls.

3. Compare savings, effort, reliability and recovery; apply the smallest authorized change.

4. Re-measure under comparable conditions and label observed, estimated and unmeasurable savings.

**Output:** Suggested paths, subject to [human audit](../../../references/human-audit.md): `COST.md` only for a useful continuing ledger.

## Verify

- Cost comparisons state period and workload; quality regressions and estimated savings are explicit.

## References

- [engineering-principles.md](../../../references/engineering-principles.md) — shared decision boundaries, scope and verification.
- [human-audit.md](../../../references/human-audit.md) — document consent, readability and human review.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add int2t05/engineering-skills/cost-optimization@sha256:4d2efd58123582ed

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.f440cbb, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
