spend

spend is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RoninForge/budgetclaw. It costs 56 tokens per session (126 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A cost-tracking tool for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant. It shows spending and usage by project and code branch, with budget limits and locks when limits are exceeded.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check current spend, review usage by project or branch, list budget limits, and inspect active breach locks.
Why use it?
It helps you see where coding-assistant costs are going and notice when spending passes a set limit. It can also prevent further use after a budget breach.

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

spend 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 5d 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.

Changes

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.
