Databricks Cost Leak Hunter
Audits a Databricks workspace for real-dollar cost leaks — idle compute, jobs on the wrong SKU, overprovisioned clusters, and the Photon premium paid without the speedup — then emits a CFO-grokkable, dollar-ranked FinOps remediation report.
Overview
This skill finds where Databricks money is leaking and how much, in dollars, per
month. Confirmed-spend figures come from the customer's own system.billing.usage
joined to system.billing.list_prices — never an estimate. Two of the four
categories (overprovisioning, Photon premium) are explicitly modeled/at-risk
amounts, labeled as such so a CFO never confuses them with recoverable spend. The
skill surfaces four named leak categories, ranks them by monthly dollar impact, and
explains each root cause in FinOps language a CFO can act on without an engineer to
translate.
