FinOps quickstart

Read usage and pricing evidence, then add a bounded cost objective.

Inspect economics

curl $MC1_BASE_URL/usage -H "Authorization: Bearer $MC1_API_KEY"

Set a per-request ceiling

{"model":"colomboai/mc-1","mc1":{"objective":"balanced","max_cost_usd":0.03}}

Interpret carefully

Pricing, estimates, accrued usage, invoice amounts, and realized business outcomes are different measures. Reconcile them rather than collapsing them into one number.
