Individual skill

cost-anomaly

MAD-based outlier detection on session spend: lists anomalous sessions with modified-z scores, with an optional --alert-on-outliers exit code for CI. Use when asked which individual session is the cost outlier; cost-burn covers the aggregate trend.

Per-session outlier detection — the diagnostic counterpart to cost-burn's
aggregate-trend signal.

| Question | Skill |
|---|---|
| "Is the AGGREGATE rate accelerating?" | `cost-burn` |
| "Which SPECIFIC sessions are anomalous outliers?" | **`cost-anomaly`** ← this |
| "Could we have spent less in aggregate?" | `cost-counterfactual` |
| "When will we hit budget?" | `cost-projection` |
