Your agent shouldn't empty your budget while you sleep. Set a hard spending cap. Enforce it before the first API call.
Lock in presale: $87/3 monthsYour AI agent looped for 5 hours Friday night. Saturday morning you see $487 charged. But OpenAI's billing alert didn't fire until Monday 9 AM—60+ hours after the problem started. By then, the damage is done. You need cost visibility before the API call, not after the invoice arrives.
Fourteen microservices calling GPT-4. One team's autocomplete endpoint burned $1,920 (40% of the $4,800 February bill). Another team's retry loop wasted $3,600. But nobody owned it until the invoice landed. With no per-agent tracking, "we all paid it" means "nobody fixed it." Your team deserves per-task cost visibility.
Your agent hits a 529 server error. It retries immediately. Then again. Then 47 more times. A simple task that should cost $0.05 ends up costing $2.80 (56x). Without per-agent cost bounds, your agent spirals invisibly. You can't cap what you can't see.
One line. Full control.
LLM-Breaker is a decorator you drop into your code:
# Before: unlimited agent loops agent = Agent(model="gpt-4") # After: 100-token hard cap from llm_breaker import cost_cap agent = cost_cap(Agent(model="gpt-4"), budget=100)
Cost cap enforces before the API call. Retry spirals stop. Agent complexity has real bounds.
$87 for 3 months. Beta access launches Week 3. Your API keys stay with you—open source, fully auditable.
