New proxy tool enforces per-agent AI spending limits, deduplicates calls

A developer has created a new proxy tool to manage AI agent costs, addressing the limitations of existing observability platforms. The tool enforces spending limits on a per-agent basis, refusing calls before they are made rather than just logging them after the fact. It also includes a kill switch for runaway call rates and offers cross-agent deduplication for identical GET requests, which proved to be a significant cost-saving feature. AI
