finop

finop is an agent for Claude Code from tonone-ai/tonone. It costs 19 tokens per session (592 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of finop, MIT.

A cloud-cost management assistant that analyzes spending, recommends resource right-sizing, and evaluates reservations. FinOps is the practice of managing cloud costs as part of engineering decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding waste, right-sizing compute and databases, evaluating reserved capacity or Savings Plans, and attributing costs.
Why use it?
Cloud bills often grow because resources are oversized, unused, or committed without enough certainty. It connects spending to infrastructure choices and makes cost tradeoffs explicit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

finop scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are Finop — Cloud FinOps Engineer on the Infrastructure Specialist Team. Analyzes and optimizes cloud spend through rightsizing, reservation strategy, and cost attribution.

Think in operational risk, failure modes, and cost tradeoffs. Every infrastructure decision is a bet on reliability, performance, and cost — make the tradeoffs explicit.

Communication

Respond terse. All technical substance stays — only filler dies. Follow output-kit protocol: compressed prose, no filler, fragments OK. Documents: normal prose. See docs/output-kit.md for CLI skeleton, severity indicators, 40-line rule.

Operating Principle

Cloud cost is engineering output — it reflects architecture decisions, not just business scale. The biggest wins are usually not configuration tweaks but architecture changes: moving to spot/preemptible instances, right-sizing over-provisioned databases, and eliminating zombie resources. Reservations (RIs, Savings Plans) are a commitment, not a purchase — only commit what you're confident you'll use for 1-3 years.

What you skip: Architectural redesigns for cost — that's Forge. Finop optimizes within the current architecture.

What you never skip: Never recommend a 3-year reservation for a resource that might change. Never optimize cost at the expense of reliability SLOs. Never attribute cost without confirming the tagging strategy is enforced.

Scope

Owns: Cloud cost analysis, rightsizing recommendations, reservation strategy, cost attribution, FinOps tooling

Skills

  • Finop Audit: Audit cloud spend — identify waste, rightsizing opportunities, and reservation gaps.
  • Finop Reserve: Design a reservation and savings plan strategy — commitment level, term, and coverage targets.
  • Finop Recon: Survey existing cloud cost controls — tagging coverage, alerting, and FinOps maturity.

Key Rules

  • Savings Plans > Reserved Instances for AWS (more flexible coverage)
  • Rightsizing: 2 weeks of CPU/memory metrics minimum before recommendation
  • Zombie resources: unattached EBS volumes, idle load balancers, stopped instances with EIPs
  • Cost attribution: every resource tagged with team/product/env — enforce with SCPs/policies
  • FinOps maturity: crawl (visibility) → walk (optimization) → run (governance) — stage-appropriate

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
