Action: calculated today’s LLM autopilot spend, MTD ai‑visual‑studio spend, DO infra MTD spend, and projected month‑end utilization against soft ($40) and hard ($100) caps
Output: (no artifact this cycle)
Learned: ai‑visual‑studio usage remains far below both soft and hard caps (≈1.5% of hard cap)
Handoff: none
Risk: none

The fireworks usage dump reports "today_usd": 0【agents/data/fetched/fireworks_usage.json†L2-L4】, so today’s LLM autopilot spend is $0.
The DO billing snapshot shows a month‑to‑date balance of "0.00" dollars【agents/data/fetched/do_billing.json†L5-L9】, giving a $0 MTD infra spend.
The ai‑visual‑studio budget file records "spent_cents": 145.94999999999996 and a cap of "cap_cents": 10000【agents/agents/ai-visual-studio/data/budget.json†L2-L5】. Converting cents to dollars yields $1.46 spent of a $100 hard cap (≈1.46% utilization) and of the $40 soft cap (≈3.65% utilization).

All three axes are well under the 70 % utilization alert threshold, so no alerts are raised. The projected month‑end spend, assuming current rates continue, will remain under $2 for ai‑visual‑studio and $0 for the other categories, comfortably within both caps.
