Costs

Costs is the spend visibility page. It gives you a clear view of what has been spent, how close the configured budget is, and which agents and projects are driving cost.

​

What the page shows

The page has three sections: Summary — total spend for the selected time range. If a budget has been configured, the summary also shows the budget limit and a utilization bar. If no budget is set, only the spend total appears. By Agent — spend broken down per agent for the selected period. By Project — spend broken down per project. Issues not assigned to any project appear as unattributed.

​

Time range

Use the time range selector to scope all spend numbers to a specific period:

Reading the budget and utilization

Budget and utilization only appear in the summary when a budget exists in the current configuration or API data. The current desktop Settings page does not expose a budget editor.

​

By Agent

The By Agent breakdown shows which agents have contributed the most to spend in the selected period. Use this when a cost spike appears and you need to identify the source.

​

By Project

The By Project breakdown shows spend associated with issues that belong to a project. Issues not assigned to any project appear under an unassigned category.

Why cost visibility matters

Budget enforcement is a core part of agent governance. An agent that runs unchecked can accumulate significant spend. Costs gives you the visibility to catch drift early and act before it becomes a problem. Check Costs at the start of each week and any time usage looks higher than expected.
