☁️💰 CloudCost

Know your cloud bill before you deploy. AI-powered cost estimation for vibe coders.

🔒 100% local - No API keys, no accounts, no code sent to cloud. Just install and use.

The Problem

You're vibe coding. AI writes the code. You deploy.

Then the bill comes: $160 in 10 days.

"Wait, what?"

The Solution

CloudCost scans your project and tells you what you'll pay before you deploy.

Installation

From VS Code Marketplace

1. Open VS Code
2. Go to Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X)
3. Search "CloudCost"
4. Install

From Source

git clone https://github.com/superkf/cloudcost
cd cloudcost
npm install
npm run compile
# Then press F5 to test in VS Code

Usage

1. Open a project in VS Code
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+P → "CloudCost: Estimate Deployment Cost"
3. See your estimated costs

Or just look at the status bar - it auto-updates on save.

Configuration

{
  "cloudcost.autoScan": true,
  "cloudcost.showOnDeploy": true,
  "cloudcost.monthlyTrafficEstimate": 10000
}

How It Works

1. Detect - Scans your code for cloud service imports, config files, and API keys
2. Estimate - Uses real pricing data + typical usage patterns
3. Display - Shows a breakdown with warnings and suggestions

🔒 Zero API Keys Required

• ✅ No API keys needed - works completely offline
• ✅ No cloud dependencies - all analysis runs locally
• ✅ No code sent anywhere - your code stays on your machine
• ✅ No accounts - just install and use

100% open source. Privacy-first by design.

Want to add a service? Edit src/estimators/pricing-data.ts and submit a PR.

Why?

Because usage-based pricing is designed to be confusing. Cloud providers want you to deploy first and worry later.

CloudCost flips the script: know your costs before you commit.

Accuracy

⚠️ Disclaimer: These are estimates based on:

• Typical vibe coder usage patterns (10k requests/month, etc.)
• Public pricing data (which changes)
• Assumptions about your traffic

Actual costs can be higher or lower. Always check official pricing.

Contributing

PRs welcome! Especially for:

• Adding new cloud services
• Updating pricing data
• Improving detection accuracy
• Better UI/UX
