Cost Optimization

cost-optimization

Optimize cloud costs across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI through resource rightsizing, tagging strategies, reserved instances, and spending analysis. Use when reducing cloud expenses, analyzing infrastructure costs, or implementing cost governance policies.

Install

Run this in your project folder. It works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and dozens of other agents.

$ npx skills add wshobson/agents --skill cost-optimization

Needs Node.js. Add -g to install for every project, or -a claude-code to skip the agent picker.

How to use Cost Optimization

Once it's installed, Claude reads this skill on its own whenever a request matches what it's for, so you don't have to mention it by name. In Claude Code you can also run it directly by typing /cost-optimization.

It contains no scripts, only instructions and reference files, so it can't run code on its own.
