Show detailed cost breakdown and budget status for the Bernstein orchestrator. Use when the user asks about spending, budget, cost per model, cost per agent, or wants a cost projection.

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

# Bernstein Cost Tracker

Show detailed cost analysis and budget status.

## When to Use

- User asks "how much have we spent?" or "what's the cost?"
- User wants per-model or per-agent cost breakdown
- User asks about budget remaining or cost projection
- User says "are we over budget?"

## Instructions

1. Run `scripts/costs.sh` to fetch cost data.
2. Run `scripts/costs.sh projection` for cost forecast.
3. Present a clear cost report:

```
## Cost Report

**Total spent:** $X.XX / $Y.YY budget (Z%)
**Status:** {OK | WARNING | OVER BUDGET}

### Per Model
| Model | Tasks | Cost | Avg/Task |
|-------|-------|------|----------|
| claude-sonnet-4 | 12 | $1.84 | $0.15 |
| gpt-4.1 | 5 | $0.62 | $0.12 |

### Per Agent
| Agent | Role | Tasks Done | Cost |
|-------|------|------------|------|
| claude-backend-01 | backend | 3 | $0.45 |

### Projection
At current rate, this run will cost ~$X.XX total.
Estimated completion: Y tasks remaining, ~Z minutes.
```

4. If budget warning is active, highlight it prominently.
5. If over budget, note that Bernstein has paused new task claims.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sipyourdrink-ltd/bernstein/bernstein-cost@sha256:755a8065d578e953

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260403.5d62653, 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.
