What it does
Cost Alert is an agent skill from hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor. 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.
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Monitoring and alerting. The repository describes itself as: 🚀 A real-time monitoring dashboard for Claude Code & Codex, built with SQLite3, Node.js, Express, React, Vite, TailwindCSS, & WebSockets. It tracks sessions, agent activity… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Checking spend alerts
- Asking why a cost alarm went off
Example prompts
- “/cost-alert”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a06db03. 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.
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.
Context cost
Cost Alert loads about 772 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 337 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
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.

- cost-alert
- description
- 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.
Cost Alert
Audit the spend guardrails: which rules exist, which have fired, and what tripped them.
Input
The user provides: $ARGUMENTS
This may be empty (review everything), "unacked" (only unacknowledged alerts),
or a rule name to focus on.
Data Sources
| Endpoint | Returns |
|---|---|
GET /api/alerts/rules | { rules: [{ id, name, rule_type, config, enabled, cooldown_seconds }] } — the guardrail definitions |
GET /api/alerts | { alerts: [{ id, rule_id, rule_name, rule_type, session_id, agent_id, message, details, triggered_at, acked }], total, unacked, limit, offset } — the fired-alert feed, newest first. ?unacked=true filters to unacknowledged |
What the rule types mean
rule_type | config | Fires when |
|---|---|---|
token_threshold | { total_tokens } | A session's cumulative tokens (input + output + cache_read + cache_write) cross the ceiling — the spend-relevant guardrail |
event_pattern | { event_type?, tool_name?, summary_contains?, count?, window_minutes? } | Matching events reach count within the window |
inactivity | { minutes } | An active session goes quiet for minutes |
status_duration | { status, minutes } | An agent is stuck in working/waiting for minutes |
For cost work, focus on token_threshold. Translate its token ceiling to dollars using the blended rate from /api/pricing/cost (total_cost / total_tokens) so the user sees the alarm in money terms.
Report Sections
1. Configured guardrails
Table from /api/alerts/rules: name, type, the human-readable threshold (e.g. token_threshold → 12,500,000 tokens ≈ $50.0000), enabled state, cooldown. Flag rules that are disabled or have no spend-relevant guardrail at all.
2. Fired alerts
Table from /api/alerts: rule name, triggered_at, scope (session/agent id), acked, and the message. Lead with the unacked count. Honor "unacked" input by querying ?unacked=true.
3. What tripped — per alert
For each fired alert, parse details and explain in plain terms: e.g. "session X crossed 12,500,000 tokens (threshold 12,500,000) ≈ $50.12 at current rates — your token_threshold budget rule fired." Tie the observed value back to the rule's config.
4. Next steps
Suggest acknowledging stale alerts (POST /api/alerts/:id/ack or /api/alerts/ack-all), tightening or loosening a threshold, or arming a missing budget rule (point to the budget-set skill).
Output
Markdown tables. Currency as USD to 4 decimal places; token counts with thousands separators. Make the link between each fired alert and the rule that produced it explicit — never report a raw alert without saying which rule tripped and why.
