This skill orchestrates infrastructure cost estimation by analyzing Helm chart configurations and component requirements. It solves the complexity of manual pricing by allowing users to select pre-configured tiers or custom TPS sizing across multiple environments. Developers should use it when estimating AWS costs for new customers or evaluating the profitability of specific infrastructure deployments.

└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘Step 1: Select Products for This Customer
Ask which products the customer needs:
| Product | Selection | Sharing | Services |
|---|---|---|---|
| Access Manager | ALWAYS INCLUDED | ALWAYS SHARED | identity, auth |
| Midaz Core | Required | Customer choice | onboarding, transaction, ledger, crm |
| Reporter | Optional | Customer choice | manager, worker, frontend |
Use AskUserQuestion for product selection:
AskUserQuestion:
question: "Which products does this customer need? (Access Manager is always included)"
header: "Products"
multiSelect: true
options:
- label: "Midaz Core + Reporter (Recommended)"
description: "Full platform: ledger + regulatory reporting"
- label: "Midaz Core only"
description: "Base ledger platform without reporting"Product → Helm Chart Mapping:
| Product | Helm Chart | Always Read |
|---|---|---|
| Access Manager | charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml |
YES (always shared) |
| Midaz Core | charts/midaz/values.yaml |
If selected |
| Reporter | charts/reporter/values.yaml |
If selected |
Step 2: Gather Basic Information
| Input | Required | Question | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Repo Path | Yes | "What is the application repository path?" | /workspace/midaz |
| Helm Charts Repo | Optional | "Path to LerianStudio/helm repository?" | /workspace/helm |
| Total Customers | Yes | "How many customers share the platform?" | 5 |
Why Helm Charts Repo? LerianStudio/helm contains actual CPU/memory configurations per service. Without it, the agent uses Midaz default values.
Note: TPS/Tier selection moved to Step 2a below.
Step 2a: Select Infrastructure Sizing Method (NEW in v6.0)
Choose between pre-configured tier or custom TPS:
2a.1: Ask Sizing Method
AskUserQuestion:
question: "How would you like to size the infrastructure?"
header: "Sizing Method"
multiSelect: false
options:
- label: "Pre-configured Tier (Recommended)"
description: "Choose optimized tier by TPS range - faster, cost-optimized"
- label: "Custom TPS"
description: "Specify exact TPS for custom infrastructure sizing"2a.2: If "Pre-configured Tier" Selected
AskUserQuestion:
question: "Which infrastructure tier matches your expected traffic?"
header: "Tier"
multiSelect: false
options:
- label: "Starter (50-100 TPS) - ~R$ 11.7k/mo"
description: "Small deployments, POC, single tenant. 2× c6i.large nodes."
- label: "Growth (100-500 TPS) - ~R$ 19.3k/mo"
description: "Growing business, moderate traffic. 3× c6i.xlarge nodes."
- label: "Business (500-1,500 TPS) - ~R$ 27.5k/mo (Recommended)"
description: "Production app, full HA. 4× c6i.xlarge nodes, Multi-AZ."
- label: "Enterprise (1,500-5,000 TPS) - ~R$ 56.7k/mo"
description: "Mission critical, high performance. 8× c6i.2xlarge nodes."Tier Reference: See infrastructure-tiers-by-tps.md for detailed tier specifications.
Tier Configurations (stored for agent dispatch):
| Tier | Target TPS | Max Capacity | Prod Nodes | Prod Replicas (auth) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | 100 | 670 | 2× c6i.large | 1 |
| Growth | 500 | 1,340 | 3× c6i.xlarge | 2 |
| Business | 1,500 | 2,010 | 4× c6i.xlarge | 3 |
| Enterprise | 5,000 | 6,030 | 8× c6i.2xlarge | 9 |
2a.3: If "Custom TPS" Selected
AskUserQuestion:
question: "What is the expected TPS (transactions per second)?"
header: "TPS"
multiSelect: false
options:
- label: "50 TPS"
description: "Low traffic, testing"
- label: "150 TPS"
description: "Small to medium traffic"
- label: "500 TPS"
description: "Medium to high traffic"
- label: "Custom value"
description: "I'll specify exact TPS"Custom TPS Calculation:
- Agent will calculate required replicas:
(TPS ÷ 670) × 1.25for auth service - Agent will size EKS nodes based on total CPU/memory requirements
- More flexible but requires more calculation
Step 3: Select Environment(s) to Calculate
Ask which environments need cost estimation:
| Environment | Region | Configuration | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homolog | us-east-2 (Ohio) | Single-AZ, 1 replica, ~35% cheaper | Testing, staging |
| Production | sa-east-1 (São Paulo) | Multi-AZ, 3 replicas, full HA | Live traffic |
Use AskUserQuestion for environment selection:
AskUserQuestion:
question: "Which environments should be estimated?"
header: "Environments"
multiSelect: true
options:
- label: "Both (Recommended)"
description: "Calculate Homolog + Production costs for complete picture"
- label: "Production only"
description: "Calculate only production environment (São Paulo)"
- label: "Homolog only"
description: "Calculate only homolog/staging environment (Ohio)"Environment Differences:
| Aspect | Homolog | Production |
|---|---|---|
| Region | us-east-2 (Ohio) | sa-east-1 (São Paulo) |
| Pricing | ~35% cheaper | Full price |
| Replicas | 1 per service | 3 per service (HA) |
| Database | Single-AZ | Multi-AZ + Read Replicas |
| NAT Gateways | 1 (single AZ) | 3 (one per AZ) |
Step 4: Read Selected Product Helm Charts
4a. Always Read Access Manager (ALWAYS SHARED)
Access Manager is platform-level infrastructure - ALWAYS included, ALWAYS shared across all customers.
ALWAYS READ: charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml
Services:
- identity (100m CPU, 128Mi memory)
- auth (500m CPU, 256Mi memory)
Infrastructure (shared):
- auth-database (PostgreSQL for Casdoor)
- valkey (session cache)Cost Attribution: Access Manager costs are ALWAYS divided by total platform customers.
4b. Read Selected Products (Based on Step 1)
Read ONLY the Helm charts for products selected in Step 1:
| Product Selected | Helm Chart to Read | Services |
|---|---|---|
| Midaz Core (if selected) | charts/midaz/values.yaml |
onboarding, transaction, ledger, crm |
| Reporter (if selected) | charts/reporter/values.yaml |
manager, worker, frontend |
Example - Customer selected "Midaz Core + Reporter":
Read: charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml → ALWAYS (shared platform)
Read: charts/midaz/values.yaml → Selected
Read: charts/reporter/values.yaml → SelectedExample - Customer selected "Midaz Core only":
Read: charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml → ALWAYS (shared platform)
Read: charts/midaz/values.yaml → Selected
Skip: charts/reporter/values.yaml → Not selected4c. Extract Resource Configurations
Source: git@github.com:LerianStudio/helm.git
For each service, extract:
resources:
requests:
cpu: ???m # CPU request in millicores
memory: ???Mi # Memory request
autoscaling:
minReplicas: ? # Minimum replicas
maxReplicas: ? # Maximum replicasExample from LerianStudio/helm values.yaml:
transaction:
replicaCount: 3
resources:
requests:
cpu: 2000m
memory: 512Mi
limits:
cpu: 2000m
memory: 512Mi
autoscaling:
enabled: true
minReplicas: 3
maxReplicas: 9If no Helm repo available, use Midaz default values from this document.
4d. Read Actual Resources (DYNAMIC - from LerianStudio/helm)
MUST read actual values at runtime - DO NOT use hardcoded values.
Source Repository: git@github.com:LerianStudio/helm.git
Files to Read:
| Chart | Path | Services |
|---|---|---|
| Midaz Core | charts/midaz/values.yaml |
onboarding, transaction, ledger, crm |
| Reporter | charts/reporter/values.yaml |
manager, worker, frontend |
| Access Manager | charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml |
identity, auth |
What to Extract per Service:
# For each service, extract:
resources:
requests:
cpu: ???m # CPU request in millicores
memory: ???Mi # Memory request
limits:
cpu: ???m # CPU limit
memory: ???Mi # Memory limit
autoscaling:
minReplicas: ? # Minimum replicas
maxReplicas: ? # Maximum replicas
# For databases (postgresql, mongodb, valkey, rabbitmq):
# Look for resourcesPreset or explicit resources blockHow to Read:
- If local clone exists:
Read toolon values.yaml files - If no local clone:
WebFetchfrom GitHub raw URLs:https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/helm/main/charts/midaz/values.yamlhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/helm/main/charts/reporter/values.yamlhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/helm/main/charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml
Fallback: If plugin/service not found, use Midaz core setup as baseline.
Step 5: Ask Per-Component Sharing Model (CRITICAL)
⛔ **HARD GATE: MUST ASK ABOUT ALL DATABASE COMPONENTS**This step requires asking about BOTH database types in a SINGLE question:
- PostgreSQL (RDS) - Relational database
- DocumentDB (MongoDB) - Document database
FORBIDDEN: Asking only about PostgreSQL and forgetting DocumentDB.
REQUIRED: Use the multiSelect AskUserQuestion with ALL components listed.
Reference: See infrastructure-cost-estimation-guide.md for:
- Sharing model definitions (SHARED vs DEDICATED vs ALWAYS SHARED)
- How sharing works in practice per component
- NAT Gateway architecture (ALWAYS SHARED)
Components That MUST Be Asked:
- VPC, 2. EKS Nodes, 3. PostgreSQL, 4. DocumentDB, 5. Valkey, 6. RabbitMQ
Note: NAT Gateway and ALB are ALWAYS SHARED (platform-level resources).
MANDATORY: Use AskUserQuestion tool with multiSelect:
AskUserQuestion:
question: "Which components need DEDICATED instances? (All others use schema-based sharing)"
header: "Dedicated"
multiSelect: true
options:
- label: "VPC"
description: "Fully isolated network (separate VPC per customer)"
- label: "PostgreSQL"
description: "Fully isolated RDS instance (not schema-based)"
- label: "DocumentDB"
description: "Fully isolated DocumentDB cluster"
- label: "Valkey"
description: "Fully isolated ElastiCache cluster"
- label: "RabbitMQ"
description: "Fully isolated Amazon MQ broker"
- label: "EKS Nodes"
description: "Dedicated compute nodes (separate node group)"Step 5 Verification Checklist:
[ ] Used multiSelect question (not individual questions per component)
[ ] PostgreSQL included in options
[ ] DocumentDB included in options
[ ] All 6 configurable components listed
[ ] User response captured for ALL components
If any checkbox is NO → STOP and fix before proceeding to Step 6.Step 6: Database Configuration (Production Only)
For PRODUCTION environment, ask about database HA configuration:
Multi-AZ (High Availability)
| Option | Description | Cost Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-AZ = YES | Automatic failover, standby in different AZ | 2x database cost |
| Multi-AZ = NO | No automatic failover | 1x database cost |
Default: Production = Multi-AZ YES, Homolog = Multi-AZ NO
Read Replicas (Scale Reads)
| TPS Range | Recommended Replicas | Why |
|---|---|---|
| < 100 TPS | 0 replicas | Primary can handle load |
| 100-300 TPS | 1 replica | Offload read queries |
| > 300 TPS | 2 replicas | Distribute read load |
Use AskUserQuestion for database HA:
AskUserQuestion:
question: "For PRODUCTION databases, what HA configuration?"
header: "Database HA"
multiSelect: false
options:
- label: "Multi-AZ + Read Replicas (Recommended)"
description: "Full HA: automatic failover + read scaling"
- label: "Multi-AZ only"
description: "Automatic failover, no read replicas"
- label: "Single-AZ (Not recommended)"
description: "No HA - only for cost-sensitive scenarios"Note: Homolog/Staging always uses Single-AZ, no read replicas (testing only).
Step 6b: Backup Configuration (Per Environment)
Backup policies differ significantly between Homolog and Production:
Backup Types
| Backup Type | Description | AWS Service |
|---|---|---|
| RDS Automated Backups | Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) | Included in RDS |
| RDS Snapshots | Manual/scheduled full backups | RDS Snapshots |
| S3 Application Backups | Application data exports | S3 Standard |
| DocumentDB Backups | Continuous backup + snapshots | DocumentDB |
Environment-Specific Defaults
| Environment | Backup Type | Retention | PITR | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Homolog | Automated only | 1-7 days | No | Minimal |
| Production | Full (automated + snapshots) | 7-35 days | Yes | Higher |
Backup Cost Components
| Component | Pricing | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| RDS Automated Backup | Free up to DB size | Beyond DB size: R$ 0.10/GB/month |
| RDS Snapshots | R$ 0.10/GB/month | Per snapshot retained |
| S3 Standard | R$ 0.12/GB/month | Application backups |
| S3 Glacier | R$ 0.02/GB/month | Archive (30+ days) |
| DocumentDB Backup | R$ 0.10/GB/month | Beyond retention period |
Backup Sizing by TPS
| TPS | DB Storage | Homolog Backup | Production Backup | S3 App Backup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-50 | 50GB | ~0 (free tier) | ~50GB × 2 snapshots | 25GB |
| 50-200 | 150GB | ~0 (free tier) | ~150GB × 3 snapshots | 75GB |
| 200-500 | 500GB | ~50GB (excess) | ~500GB × 4 snapshots | 250GB |
Backup Configuration Questions
Use AskUserQuestion for backup policy:
AskUserQuestion:
question: "What backup retention policy for PRODUCTION?"
header: "Backup Policy"
multiSelect: false
options:
- label: "Standard (7-day retention, daily snapshots) (Recommended)"
description: "7-day PITR + 7 daily snapshots (moderate cost)"
- label: "Extended (35-day retention, daily + weekly snapshots)"
description: "35-day PITR + daily/weekly snapshots (higher cost)"
- label: "Minimal (1-day retention, weekly snapshots)"
description: "1-day PITR + weekly snapshots (lower cost, higher risk)"Homolog Backup Policy:
- Always minimal (1-7 day retention)
- No additional snapshots needed (testing environment)
- Cost: Typically free (within RDS automated backup limit)
Step 7: Gather Billing Model
| Input | Question | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Billing Unit | "What is the billing unit?" | transaction |
| Price per Unit | "What price per unit?" | R$ 0.10 |
| Expected Volume | "Expected monthly volume?" | 1,000,000 |
Step 8: Dispatch Agent with Complete Data
BEFORE dispatching, skill MUST read actual resource configs:
8a. Read Current Values from LerianStudio/helm (Based on Selected Products)
# ALWAYS read (platform-level, shared)
Read: charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml → Extract: identity, auth resources
# Read based on product selection (Step 1)
If Midaz Core selected:
Read: charts/midaz/values.yaml → Extract: onboarding, transaction, ledger, crm resources
If Reporter selected:
Read: charts/reporter/values.yaml → Extract: manager, worker, frontend resources
# Also extract database configurations for selected products8b. Dispatch Agent with Collected Data
Only dispatch AFTER reading actual values for selected products.
Two dispatch patterns:
- Tier-based (user selected pre-configured tier)
- Custom TPS (user specified exact TPS)
Pattern 1: Tier-Based Dispatch
If user selected a tier in Step 2a, provide tier configuration:
Task tool:
subagent_type: "ring:infrastructure-cost-estimator"
model: "opus"
prompt: |
Calculate infrastructure costs using PRE-CONFIGURED TIER.
Tier: BUSINESS (500-1,500 TPS)
Target TPS: 1,500
Max Capacity: 2,010 TPS
Tier Configuration:
Production:
Replicas: auth=3, transaction=3, onboarding=2, identity=1, auth-backend=1
Nodes: 4× c6i.xlarge (4 vCPU, 8 GiB each)
Databases:
- auth-postgresql: db.m7g.large (Multi-AZ + 1 replica)
- midaz-postgresql: db.m7g.large (Multi-AZ + 1 replica)
- documentdb: db.r8g.large (Multi-AZ + 1 replica)
Cache:
- auth-valkey: cache.m7g.large (Multi-AZ)
- midaz-valkey: cache.m7g.large (Multi-AZ)
Queue:
- rabbitmq: mq.m7g.large (active/standby)
Homolog:
Nodes: 2× c6i.xlarge
Databases: All db.m7g.large (Single-AZ)
Products Selected:
- Access Manager: ALWAYS INCLUDED (shared platform)
- Midaz Core: YES
- Reporter: NO
Infrastructure:
- App Repo: /workspace/midaz
- Total Customers on Platform: 5
Environments to Calculate: [Homolog, Production]
Actual Resource Configurations (from Helm charts):

[INSERT VALUES FROM charts/midaz/values.yaml]
Component Sharing Model:
[... same as before ...]
Database Configuration:
[... same as before ...]
Billing Model:
[... same as before ...]
Calculate and return:
[... same 11 sections as before ...]Pattern 2: Custom TPS Dispatch
If user specified custom TPS, agent calculates infrastructure:
Task tool:
subagent_type: "ring:infrastructure-cost-estimator"
model: "opus"
prompt: |
Calculate infrastructure costs for CUSTOM TPS.
TPS: 750 (custom)
Calculate required infrastructure:
- Required auth replicas = (750 ÷ 670) × 1.25 = ~2 replicas
- Required transaction replicas = (750 ÷ 815) × 1.25 = ~2 replicas
- Calculate EKS node sizing from total CPU/memory requirements
- Use appropriate database instance sizes for traffic level
Products Selected:
- Access Manager: ALWAYS INCLUDED (shared platform)
- Midaz Core: YES
- Reporter: NO
Infrastructure:
- App Repo: /workspace/midaz
- Helm Charts Source: LerianStudio/helm
- Total Customers on Platform: 5
Environments to Calculate: [Homolog, Production]
Actual Resource Configurations (from Helm charts):
[INSERT VALUES FROM charts/plugin-access-manager/values.yaml]
[INSERT VALUES FROM charts/midaz/values.yaml]
Component Sharing Model:
[... same as before ...]
Database Configuration:
[... same as before ...]
Billing Model:
[... same as before ...]
Calculate and return:
[... same 11 sections as before ...]Note: Custom TPS dispatch is backwards compatible with v5.0.

| Rationalization | Why It's WRONG | Required Action |
|---|---|---|
| "Assume all components are shared" | Customer may have dedicated DB | ASK for each component |
| "Skip component questions" | Cost attribution will be wrong | Must ask shared/dedicated |
| "Agent can figure it out" | Agent calculates, skill orchestrates | Skill collects all data |
| "Just use total customers" | Some components may be dedicated | Per-component model required |
| "Asked about PostgreSQL, that covers databases" | PostgreSQL ≠ DocumentDB - they are separate components with different costs | MUST ask about BOTH PostgreSQL AND DocumentDB |
| "DocumentDB is obviously shared/dedicated like PostgreSQL" | Customer may want different isolation levels for different data types | Ask about each database separately in multiSelect |
| "I'll ask about databases separately" | Separate questions risk forgetting one | Use single multiSelect with ALL components |
