Cloud Cost Estimator
This skill adds financial awareness to infrastructure design by estimating costs for AWS, Azure, and GCP resources.
Capabilities
1. Cost Projection
- Parses
.tffiles to identify resource types and counts. - Provides estimated monthly costs based on standard pricing models.
2. Efficiency Recommendations
- Suggests cost-saving alternatives (e.g., "Use Spot instances for this worker group").
- Identifies "expensive" architectural choices.
- Validates if the projected infrastructure cost is within the typical range (e.g., 5-8% of ARR for SaaS) defined in IT Cost Benchmarks.
Usage
- "How much will this Terraform configuration cost per month on AWS?"
- "Compare the estimated cost of this multi-region setup vs a single-region setup."
Knowledge Protocol
- This skill adheres to the
knowledge/orchestration/knowledge-protocol.md. It automatically integrates Public, Confidential (Company/Client), and Personal knowledge tiers, prioritizing the most specific secrets while ensuring no leaks to public outputs. - References IT Cost Benchmarks for infrastructure spending standards relative to company size.
