What I ship

Also open source

OPEN SOURCE · v0.2.0

claude-agent-ledger

Per-subagent cost attribution for Claude Code. Reads the local JSONL session logs and shows what each subagent, model, and day actually consumed at marginal API rates. My own pipeline runs at ~$13K/week shadow cost on a $200/mo Max plan — the gap is the most interesting thing I've seen in LLM infra this year.

The thesis

AI Agents ship fast but break in the same long-tail ways distributed systems always have. Most teams don't yet have the eval, observability or reliability practices to catch it.

Six years of debugging a hypervisor at 3 AM gives you a reflex: if you don't have a per-component bill of materials, you don't actually understand the system. I'm pointing that reflex at AI Agents.
