I gave my Android AI agent a $0.25 budget per task. Here’s how it still finishes.

Описание и применение

На Android‑приложении Kryzz AI установили жесткий лимит расходов на каждый шаг агента ($0,25 по умолчанию). Когда бюджет почти исчерпан, агент прекращает вызывать инструменты и формирует лучший ответ из уже собранных данных, предоставляя журнал выполненных и пропущенных действий.

Задача

Agent loops on mobile devices consume credit silently, causing users to lose money before noticing.

Результат

The budget cap prevents silent credit loss while still delivering usable results, with a transparent log of skipped actions.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. User sets a per‑turn budget in settings (default $0.25).
• 2. Agent plans the task; planning does not count against the budget.
• 3. Agent executes steps, each tool call checked against the remaining budget.
• 4. When the remaining budget is low, the agent stops calling tools and writes the best answer from gathered data.
• 5. The answer includes a work log showing performed and skipped actions.
• 6. User can rerun with a higher budget if needed.

Доказательства

Every turn has a hard cost cap. The default is $0.25 and you can raise it up to $2 in settings.

Источник

Instead, when the cap is close, the agent stops calling tools and writes the best answer it can from what it already collected.

Источник

The work log under the answer shows what it did and what it skipped, so you can tell whether to rerun with a bigger budget or whether it's good enough.
