cost-optimizer
Detect cost optimization opportunities for Claude API usage by analyzing usage patterns and recommending pricing-aware strategies.
When to Use
Use when analyzing API usage costs, planning batch processing workflows, or optimizing prompt engineering for cost efficiency. The skill evaluates 6 optimization rules: prompt caching, model downgrade, Batch API, streaming, output limits, and context trimming.
Instructions
- Recall previous cost analysis with
skill_memory_contextusing predicatecost:opportunity - The skill scans usage data for patterns indicating optimization potential
- Each detected opportunity includes an estimated savings percentage
- Review recommendations and apply the most impactful changes first
- Re-run periodically to track cost reduction progress over time
