Ccam Cost Guard

Define a spend budget for Claude Code and, optionally, create a cost alert rule that fires when usage crosses the limit, via POST /api/alerts/rules on the Agent Monitor dashboard. Reads current spend from /api/pricing/cost to size the budget sensibly and explains every rule field before writing. Use when setting a spend limit or wiring up a budget guardrail.

Review the configured cost alert rules and the alerts currently fired on the Agent Monitor dashboard, then explain exactly what tripped and why. Uses /api/alerts (fired feed) and /api/alerts/rules (definitions). Use when checking spend alerts or asking why a cost alarm went off.

Estimate the dollars saved by routing eligible Claude Code work to a cheaper model family, using the Agent Monitor pricing engine. Re-prices each model's token mix at the target family's rates and quantifies the delta. Uses /api/pricing (rates), /api/pricing/cost (current per-model spend), /api/sessions, and /api/analytics. Use when hunting for cost cuts or comparing model tiers.

Forecast Claude Code spend to the end of the week or month from the daily session trend on the Agent Monitor dashboard — moving average of daily spend × days remaining, added to spend-to-date. Uses /api/analytics daily_sessions, /api/pricing/cost, and /api/sessions for a per-day cost curve. Use when projecting cost or asking "where will my spend land".

Run a daily spend check-in against a daily budget on the Agent Monitor dashboard — today's spend vs the daily target, pace through the day, and the projected overage if the current pace holds. Uses /api/pricing/cost and /api/sessions (grouped by started_at = today). Use for a quick daily spend check-in or a morning/evening budget pulse.
