Maintenance status: 🧊 FROZEN

Frozen on 2026-10-05. No new features. This package still works, and it is not retired — but it no longer receives feature work. Only a genuine breakage will be fixed.

Maintainers treat this capability as one where better-adopted alternatives now exist, so effort has moved elsewhere. The comparison below was measured on 2026-10-05 and is recorded so nobody has to redo it.

	package	weekly downloads
this package	dsh-budget	1,079
better-adopted alternative	dsh-cost-meter	33,526
another alternative	dsh-usage-stats	not measured
another alternative	@dougen/dsh-deepseek-usage	6,019

Why the alternative leads. dsh-cost-meter provides a 170+ model price catalog with automatic matching, and Coding-Plan quota lookup for 11 providers.

Compatibility. Its declared dsh peer range admits the 0.2.x line, so it loads on current hosts.

👉 For new work, prefer dsh-cost-meter. Existing installs keep working unchanged; nothing is being removed.

Compatibility

Surface	Status
Harness	DeepSeek Harness dsh-v0.2.1-alpha.1 (GitHub tag, adapted 2026-09-24; peer range `>=0.1.2-rc.1 <0.2.0

| Audit events | Written on harnesses before 0.1.2-rc.1; suppressed with a logged degradation reason on 0.1.2-rc.1 and later (fail-closed session event vocabulary, no external registration surface) || Node | ^22.19.0 \|\| >=24.0.0 | | Surfaces | Host + Web client (Settings budget tab); /budget command |

What you get

dsh-budget turns the session event stream into a four-in-one cost governance loop:

• Aggregated metering — tokens (uncached input / output / cache read / cache write), estimated USD cost, and carbon footprint per model, session, and day, priced through a built-in USD-per-1M table merged with your config.prices.
• Budget governance — session/daily/monthly caps; a warn-ratio threshold alert (webhook POST + desktop-notification flag) and three over-limit policies: alert (notify only), block (short-circuit new model requests until the user lifts the block), degrade (block with corrective guidance naming the cheaper model from your degradation map).
• Carbon & latency — token→carbon bridge (tokens × kWh/token × PUE × regional grid intensity, ported from AI-Carbon-Footprint-Calculator) and per-model latency percentiles.
• Surfaces — the Settings budget tab (usage bars, per-day usage curve, model breakdown, alerts, cap editors, unblock buttons) and the /budget command (/budget, /budget models, /budget unblock <scope>).

Quick start

dsh plugin --profile web add github:PerryLink/dsh-budget

# 1. install the bundle into your profile
dsh plugin --profile web add github:PerryLink/dsh-budget

# or from npm (published releases)
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-budget

# 2. restart and verify the row
dsh --profile web --dump-config | grep -A2 'id: budget'

Then ask the agent: /budget — and watch the Settings tab fill in.

Install & uninstall

• git channel (latest main): dsh plugin --profile web add github:PerryLink/dsh-budget — the prepare script builds with production dependencies only.
• npm channel (published releases): dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-budget.
• tarball channel: pnpm pack in this repo, then dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-budget-<version>.tgz.
• uninstall: dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-budget.

If pnpm reports ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS for this package (esbuild's harmless platform-binary validation), add allowBuilds: { esbuild: true } to your pnpm-workspace.yaml — the dsh CLI prints the exact snippet.

Configuration

All tunables are Schemastery Config fields (changeable from cordis.yml). cordis.patch.yml documents each key inline.

Key	Default	Meaning
prices	{}	Per-model USD prices per 1M tokens, merged over the built-in table
defaultPrice	unpriced signal (priced: false, zero numbers)	Fallback for models absent from both tables: the default contributes 0 to accounting and surfaces as "unpriced"; set numbers with priced: true to price unknown models explicitly
budgets.session / daily / monthly	10 / 50 / 500	Budget caps in USD per scope; omit for unlimited
warnRatio	0.8	Alert once usage reaches this fraction of a cap (0..1)
overLimit	alert	alert / block / degrade after a cap is crossed
degradation	{}	Model id → cheaper model id of the same provider
webhookUrl	(none)	Optional webhook URL for threshold alerts (POST JSON)
webhookTimeoutMs	5000	Webhook request timeout
alertsEnabled	true	Master switch for threshold alerts
alertCooldownMs	3600000	Minimum ms between two alerts of the same scope
desktopNotifications	false	Browser desktop notifications while the tab is open
refreshIntervalMs	5000	Settings tab polling interval
carbon.enabled / region / pue / energyKwhPerToken	true / global / 1.58 / 0.000007	Carbon bridge (regions: global, us, eu, china, india, uk, france, iceland)
latency.enabled / windowSize	true / 200	Per-model latency percentiles and their window
currency	{code: USD, rate: 1.0, decimals: 2}	Display currency (costs are computed in USD)
outputLanguage	en	/budget output language: en / zh
historyDays	30	Per-day usage history kept in the panel snapshot
persistence.enabled / intervalMs	true / 10000	Durable day/month persistence across restarts (storage domain); degrades to in-memory when the domain is absent

Tools & surfaces

Surface	Kind	Notes
/budget	Command	Per-scope overview (usage, ratio, carbon, blocked state)
/budget models	Command	Per-model breakdown with latency percentiles
/budget unblock <scope>	Command	Lift a blocked scope (session / daily / monthly)
Settings → Plugins → Budget	Settings tab	Usage bars, per-day usage curve, model breakdown, alerts, cap editors, unblock buttons
budget/status, budget/setSettings, budget/unblock	Typert Remote	The client channel (the tab consumes these)

Permissions & data

• Permissions: network:outbound (the optional alert webhook only), session:append (audit events), native-code:none.
• Data: everything displayed comes from the session event stream; the only host-side network call is the configured webhook, whose URL is validated at load and credential-stripped before any log. No prompts or payloads ever leave the host.
• Session log: budget/alert and budget/block are log-only audit events carrying scope names and USD amounts (microtask-deferred past the session-append reentrancy guard). On harnesses 0.1.2-rc.1 and later they are not written — the fail-closed event vocabulary rejects logs with unregistered event types and offers no external registration surface — so the audit trail degrades to the budget logger and webhook only.

Security boundaries

• No fabrication: a budget block yields a corrective error finish on the llm/stream waterfall — the plugin never invents model output.
• No request rewriting: loop-built requests are frozen; degrade therefore names the target model in the corrective message instead of swapping the request.
• Fail loud: invalid prices, URLs, ratios, regions, and bounds fail the mount.
• Honest scope: runtime edits from the panel are session-scoped; a reload restores the cordis.yml values.

Known limitations

• Aggregation is process-local: usage resets when the harness restarts (per-day/per-month buckets rebuild from the current session log view).
• block/degrade rely on the llm/stream waterfall; harness builds without that seam cannot block requests (alerts still work).
• Built-in prices drift; override entries via config.prices.

Development

pnpm install        # node ^22.19 || >=24

pnpm run typecheck:ci  # tsc against the published types (no paths)
pnpm test           # vitest
pnpm run build      # tsc declarations + tsdown bundles (lib/)
pnpm run verify:self-contained  # dependency specs resolve from the registry
pnpm run verify:artifacts       # built ESM face + typert manifest + client bundle
pnpm pack           # the published tarball

Interoperability with other DSH plugins

Verified against DSH 0.2.0-rc.2 (the runtime this README ships for) and the high-star plugin set surveyed on 2026-10-05.

This plugin does not interfere with other plugins, including the widely installed high-star ones:

• No tool-name collision. Every tool is namespaced; no bare name owned by a shipped tool or another plugin is registered.
• No service-key collision. It provides budget; that key is not a built-in seam and is not provided by any surveyed high-star plugin.
• No slot collision. It registers no client slot key, so it cannot contend for a shadows-shipped-ui seat.
• No HTTP route collision. It registers no webServer prefix.
• No patch-layer collision. The bundle patch only inserts its own row; it never overrides a built-in row's config.
• No global mutation. It does not patch prototypes, rewrite process.env, or replace the global fetch dispatcher.

Shared event listeners are non-interfering by construction. It observes the ordering-sensitive event llm/stream with ctx.on() — Cordis's broadcast registration, where every listener runs and none can starve another. Every listener here delegates through next(), so the chain is never short-circuited, and a mutation is applied to the value next() produced rather than returned in its place:

• llm/stream — also used by dsh-routing-suite (7000★).

Static evidence: dsh-plugin-doctor K10–K13 report pass for every check on this repository.
