CloudMetric — Cost-as-you-type

Real-time cloud and AI cost annotations inline in your VS Code editor. See the cost of every API call, model invocation, and cloud resource as you write code — no context switching required.

Features

• Inline cost annotations — per-call and monthly cost estimates rendered directly in the editor
• AI model pricing — supports OpenAI, Anthropic, and other major model providers
• AWS resource costs — Terraform file analysis with region-aware pricing
• Smart token estimation — estimates input/output tokens from your actual code
• Color-coded warnings — green / yellow / red thresholds so expensive calls stand out
• Hover details — hover over any annotation to see a full cost breakdown

Supported Languages

• TypeScript / JavaScript (.ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx)
• Terraform (.tf)

Getting Started

1. Install the extension from the VS Code Marketplace
2. Open any supported file — annotations appear automatically
3. Optionally add a cloudmetric.config.json to your project root to customize behavior
