Budget Skill

View and manage turn budget for the active workflow.

Usage

/team-shinchan:budget                    # Show current budget status
/team-shinchan:budget --set total=200    # Set total turn budget
/team-shinchan:budget --set phase=50     # Set phase turn budget
/team-shinchan:budget --reset            # Reset used counters to 0
/team-shinchan:budget --reset phase      # Reset only phase counter

Arguments

Arg	Default	Description
(none)	—	Show current budget status table
--set total=N	—	Set total turn budget to N
--set phase=N	—	Set phase turn budget to N
--reset	—	Reset both used_total and used_phase to 0
--reset phase	—	Reset only used_phase to 0

Process

Step 1: Find Active Workflow

Look for .shinchan-docs/*/WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml files. Use the most recently modified one.

If no workflow state found:

No active workflow found.
Start a workflow with /team-shinchan:start to enable budget tracking.

Step 2: Handle --set

If --set total=N or --set phase=N is provided:

1. Read the WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
2. Ensure budget section exists; create if missing:

   budget:
     total: 200
     phase: 50
     used_total: 0
     used_phase: 0
   

3. Update the specified field (total or phase) with the given value N
4. Write back to WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
5. Display confirmation:

   Budget updated: {field} set to {N}
   

Step 3: Handle --reset

If --reset is provided:

1. Read the WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
2. If --reset phase: set budget.used_phase to 0
3. If --reset (no qualifier): set both budget.used_total and budget.used_phase to 0
4. Write back to WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
5. Display confirmation:

   Budget counters reset.
   

Step 4: Display Status (default)

1. Read the WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
2. If no budget section:

   No budget configured for this workflow.
   Use /team-shinchan:budget --set total=200 to configure.
   

3. Read current session ID from .shinchan-docs/.session-id
4. Count current session turns from .shinchan-docs/work-tracker.jsonl
   • Filter events by current session ID
   • Count events where type is: tool_use, file_change, delegation
5. Calculate effective usage:

   effective_total = budget.used_total + session_turns
   effective_phase = budget.used_phase + session_turns
   

6. Display:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Budget Status
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

| Metric       | Used | Max | Pct   | Status  |
|--------------|------|-----|-------|---------|
| Total turns  | {effective_total} | {total} | {pct}% | {status} |
| Phase turns  | {effective_phase} | {phase} | {pct}% | {status} |

Session turns (current): {session_turns}
Accumulated (previous):  total={used_total}, phase={used_phase}

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Status values:

• On Track — under 80%
• WARNING — 80% to 99%
• EXCEEDED — 100% or above

Important

• Budget is per-workflow, stored in WORKFLOW_STATE.yaml
• Turn counting uses work-tracker.jsonl events as proxy
• The budget-guard hook enforces limits automatically during execution
• Phase budget resets are manual (use --reset phase when advancing phases)
