AWX Shredder
Hard budget cap for AI agents - blocks before it hits OpenAI
AI agents can burn your entire OpenAI budget in minutes from a single bug or loop. There's no native per-agent spend limit. AWX Shredder is a drop-in proxy between your agent and OpenAI/Anthropic. It blocks the API call before it's made if the agent is over budget. → One env var to integrate → Slack alerts at 50%, 80%, 100% of budget → Full audit log per agent → Free tier, self-serve signup today
Hey PH! Maker here.
I built this after a friend showed me a $400 OpenAI bill from a single overnight agent loop. The agent hit a bug, got stuck, and kept calling GPT-4 until the monthly limit kicked in — by which point the damage was done.
The frustrating thing is OpenAI's built-in limits are account-wide, not per agent. If you're running 10 agents, there's no way to say "this one gets $5/day."
AWX Shredder solves exactly that. It's been running in production and I'm opening it up. Would love feedback from anyone building agents — especially on what alerts or controls you wish you had. Happy to answer anything.
