Read-only LLM cost observability

The read-only correlation of request → model → token → $ is smart — you get a shot at answering 'why did our bill spike?' without routing traffic through a proxy. It also claims workflow-level analysis (long prompts, retries, agent loops) and concrete recommendations like model routing and context trimming; useful, but the pitch leaves open how reliable the heuristics and team-attribution are across providers.
