Price Your Real Usage Mix Against Other Providers
Price-card comparisons lie by omission: a provider that halves the per-token price and lacks cache discounts can cost more on a cache-heavy coding workload. This skill prices the user's own month of usage, with its real input/output/cache mix, under each candidate. It is read-only on the platform. Locally it writes a trace export while it works and deletes it again, and leaves one report file behind.
Step 1: Set up the LangWatch CLI
Use the langwatch CLI for everything: documentation (langwatch docs ..., langwatch scenario-docs ...) and platform operations (prompts, scenarios, evaluators, datasets, monitors, traces, analytics). Install it once with npm install -g langwatch, then run the langwatch binary directly; an unpinned npx langwatch re-resolves the package from the registry on every run.
Personal coding-agent usage needs langwatch login --device; a team or application project needs --project <slug> on the read commands.
Use langwatch docs <path> to read documentation as Markdown. Some useful entry points:
langwatch docs # Docs index
langwatch docs integration/python/guide # Python integration
langwatch docs integration/typescript/guide # TypeScript integration
langwatch docs prompt-management/cli # Prompts CLI
langwatch scenario-docs # Scenario docs index
