System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

It prevents costly overruns by evaluating remaining token budgets across query, session, and monthly tiers before an expensive AI operation proceeds.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi‑tier Budget Evaluation: Queries query, session, and monthly token limits in a single call.
  • Category‑Based Cost Multipliers: Adjusts estimated token usage based on operation type (web, compute, file, memory).
  • Decision Matrix: Returns APPROVE, WARN, or BLOCK decisions with detailed utilization metrics.
  • Use Cases: Pre‑flight checks for web searches, heavy compute tasks, file processing pipelines, or any multi‑step AI workflow that could exceed token budgets.

Quick Start

Ask the budget guard to verify if a 2,000‑token web search fits within the current budget.
