## Summary

Hunt cloud/infra spend spikes and propose savings with evidence.

## When to use

- Cloud bills spike without an obvious deploy
- You need daily/weekly FinOps digests
- Idle previews, runaway jobs, or egress costs are suspects
- Budget guardrails and owner tags are missing

3. 3. Apply skill method step-by-step
4. 4. Produce structured outputs and quality check
5. 5. Hand off next owner + done_when criteria

## Capabilities (preview)

- Execute Infra Cost Anomaly Hunter workflows end-to-end
- Hunt cloud/infra spend spikes and propose savings with evidence
- Structure decisions with explicit assumptions
