Budget Optimizer

What it does

When your agent uses it

• The user asks to allocate my influencer budget
• Optimize spend across tiers
• Compare budget scenarios
• Produces a tier/platform/content allocation table

Example prompts

• “allocate my influencer budget”
• “optimize spend across tiers”
• “compare budget scenarios”
• “/budget-optimizer”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Claude Code and compatible agent-skill hosts

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Allocation sums to 100% of the stated budget with a contingency line.
2. 2Every projected metric is labeled Measured / User-provided / Estimated.
3. 3One recommended scenario is named with its rationale.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ad8daf7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

• Compatibility

  Claude Code and compatible agent-skill hosts

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Budget Optimizer loads about 2.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 772 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~85

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~2.6k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~5.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description

Use when the user asks to "allocate my influencer budget", "optimize spend across tiers", or "compare budget scenarios"; produces a tier/platform/content allocation table, ROI and CPM/CPE projections, scenario comparisons, and mid-campaign reallocation moves. Not for building the full campaign plan — use campaign-planner.
