Module 17 · Chapter 11: Cost and monitoring
The cost of one agent task
In short
Agents pay per token, and every turn resends a growing context. Measure real runs, shrink tool results, pick the right model, then set per-task and per-day limits that actually stop.
After this lesson you can
- Estimate one agent task's cost from tokens and number of turns
- Set budget limits per task and per day
