Put hard cost guardrails on ANY Google Cloud API (Places/Maps, Vision, Gemini/Vertex, Translate, Geocoding, etc.) — set a monthly billing budget with alert thresholds AND per-API per-day quota caps that make Google itself refuse runaway calls, all via gcloud.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'google-api-budget-guardrails' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'google-api-budget-guardrails' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named google-api-budget-guardrails already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/LiamVisionary/hivemindos' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'f270c4ae4f9d09c4e5da9cfa8adab7e89ae1f53e' -- 'packaged-skills/optional/ops/hivemindos/google-api-budget-guardrails' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'packaged-skills/optional/ops/hivemindos/google-api-budget-guardrails' ~/.agents/skills/'google-api-budget-guardrails' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'google-api-budget-guardrails' ~/.claude/skills/'google-api-budget-guardrails' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
