How does Agent Budget Sentinel prevent runaway agent billing?

Agent Budget Sentinel operates an inline HTTP proxy and circuit breaker state machine. Before forwarding calls to LLM providers, it estimates prompt cost and tracks cumulative spend. When spending reaches the user's hard budget ceiling or triggers an extreme velocity spike, it trips immediately and returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests, saving downstream clusters from infinite loops.

Does Agent Budget Sentinel require external pip dependencies or cloud servers?

No. Agent Budget Sentinel is built 100% on the Python 3.10+ standard library with zero external pip dependencies. It runs completely locally with zero telemetry leakage and sub-millisecond overhead.
