Trigger.dev Cost Savings Analysis

Analyze task runs and configurations to find cost reduction opportunities. This skill pairs static source analysis with live run analysis via the Trigger.dev MCP server.

Before you start: read the canonical guidance

The authoritative, version-pinned cost guidance ships beside this skill. Read it first so your recommendations match the installed SDK version:

• @trigger.dev/sdk/docs/how-to-reduce-your-spend.mdx — the canonical "reduce your spend" guide (machine sizing, idempotency de-dup, parallelism, retries, maxDuration, checkpointed waits, debounce).
• Supporting references: @trigger.dev/sdk/docs/machines.mdx, runs/max-duration.mdx, queue-concurrency.mdx, idempotency.mdx, triggering.mdx (debounce + batch), errors-retrying.mdx (AbortTaskRunError).

Prerequisites: MCP tools

Live run analysis needs the Trigger.dev MCP server. Verify these tools are available:

• list_runs — list runs with filters (status, task, time period, machine size)
• get_run_details — get run logs, duration, and status
• get_current_worker — get registered tasks and their configurations
