Optimize Cloud Costs: AI Agent for AWS & Kubernetes Analysis

Optimize Cloud Costs: AI Agent for AWS & Kubernetes Analysis

The Optimize Cloud Costs AI Agent skill supports users in investigating and analysing cloud costs within AWS and Kubernetes environments. It generates detailed reports identifying cost anomalies, potential waste, and service-specific expenses, complete with a prioritized list of remediation steps. This agent operates in strict read-only mode, ensuring no changes are made to the cloud environment, and all queries require operator approval.

What this skill does

• Investigates cloud cost queries in one of three modes: anomaly detection, waste identification, or cost attribution.
• Operates in a read-only capacity, accessing only Cost APIs, resource-state APIs, and metrics APIs.
• Provides a detailed report with findings and a prioritized remediation list, supported by evidence-cited savings estimates.
• Requires operator approval for each batch of cloud queries before execution.
• Produces reports designed to assist users in understanding and optimizing cloud-related expenditures.

Who it is for

• Developers and DevOps teams using AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex.
• IT operations teams responsible for cloud cost management and optimization.
• Financial analysts focusing on cloud expenditure within organizations utilizing AWS and Kubernetes.

Use cases

• Identifying reasons for unexpected spikes in AWS billing through anomaly investigations.
• Auditing cloud usage to find and report on resource wastage for cost-saving opportunities.
• Breaking down expenses to understand the cost of individual services and attributing costs accurately.

Technical details

• Compatible with AWS services such as Cost Explorer, Compute Optimizer, and CloudWatch.
• Integrates with Kubernetes cost analysis tools like OpenCost and Kubecost.
• Investigates costs related to resources owned by AWS CloudFormation, Serverless, SAM, and CDK, flagged as `unsupported-owner`.
• Excludes analysis outside the scope of AWS and Kubernetes, such as GCP and Azure environments.
