About cost-optimization

cost-optimization
Optimize cloud costs across AWS, Azure, GCP
cost-optimization is an agent skill from the wshobson/agents collection for reducing cloud spending across AWS, Azure, GCP and Oracle Cloud (OCI). It sets out strategies and patterns that cut costs while keeping performance and reliability in place. The main levers it covers are resource rightsizing, which matches instances and services to the load they actually carry, tagging strategies that make spending traceable to teams and projects, reserved instances and commitment discounts, and spending analysis that finds where the money goes. The skill is organized as a framework that starts with visibility, so you know what you are paying for before you change anything, and then moves to the actions that reduce cost. It applies when you want to reduce cloud spending, right-size resources, put cost governance in place, optimize costs across several clouds, or meet a budget constraint. It is advice for an agent to follow in a conversation about your environment, so the findings depend on the billing and usage data you can share. The skill is installed with the skills CLI from the wshobson/agents repository. Its skills.sh page showed about 11.3K installs and passing results from three security audits at the time of the scan.
