cost-tracker skillA

cost-tracker is agent-read markdown (skill) from rohitg00/pro-workflow: Track session costs, set budget alerts, and optimize token spend. Use to check costs mid-session or set spending limits..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Cost Tracker

Monitor and optimize Claude Code session costs.

## Trigger

Use when:
- Checking session costs
- Setting budget alerts
- Optimizing token spend
- Planning multi-session work

## Cost Awareness

### Check Current Costs
```bash
# Session cost is shown at the end of each session
# Mid-session: check the status bar or run /cost
```

### Cost Drivers

| Operation | Relative Cost | Optimization |
|-----------|--------------|-------------|
| Large file reads | High | Use offset/limit params |
| Broad grep searches | Medium | Scope to specific dirs |
| Subagent spawning | High (new context) | Reuse agents via SendMessage |
| Repeated tool calls | Cumulative | Batch operations |
| MCP tool calls | Variable | Minimize round-trips |
| Model selection | 3-10x difference | Use haiku for simple tasks |

### Token Budget by Task Type

| Task | Typical Cost | Budget Alert |
|------|-------------|-------------|
| Bug fix | $0.10-0.50 | $1.00 |
| Feature (small) | $0.50-2.00 | $3.00 |
| Feature (large) | $2.00-8.00 | $10.00 |
| Refactor | $1.00-5.00 | $7.00 |
| Code review | $0.20-1.00 | $2.00 |

### Tool-Call Budgets
