spendtron
Analyzes GitHub Actions workflow usage to rank workflows and repositories by compute cost, helping identify which CI jobs are driving spend.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@spendtronWhich GitHub Actions workflows are racking up the biggest CI costs?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
spendtron
A read-only tool that finds which GitHub Actions workflow is eating your CI bill and ranks workflows and repos by real compute cost.
Delivered as an MCP server — call check_actions_cost from Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible client, no dashboard required. Auth is a GitHub App (read-only: Actions + Metadata) plus a spendtron API key, passed as a bearer token. One free audit per connected org, then $99/mo via Stripe.
The underlying audit logic started as ~/code/ci-audit/actions-teardown.sh (bash + gh api) — lib/auditActions.js is the same algorithm, ported to run per-installation against many customers' orgs instead of one local gh-authenticated user.
Status
Real product, not a waitlist — see HANDOFF.md/FINDINGS.md/CARRD.md in ~/code/ci-audit for the history of how this got here (an earlier waitlist-and-post-to-Reddit attempt correctly got abandoned; the audit logic itself was always real).
The GitHub App must be public (GitHub → spendtron-app → Advanced → Make this GitHub App public) so anyone can hit Connect GitHub. That toggle lives in the GitHub UI, not this repo.

Test
npm test — covers the cost-math port (must match actions-teardown.sh's bash/awk exactly) and API-key auth, against a mocked GitHub client (no live credentials needed for these).
