Setup snapshot

  1. 1

    Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.

  2. 2

    Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

burnstop

Stop AI agents from burning your money. Pre-flight budget gate. Hard-stop before token-1. ~$0.001 per check.

I built this after my own autonomous platform hit runaway LLM costs — loops that looked like progress but were burning through budget with zero output. The model causing the loop is the same one you'd ask to self-throttle. That doesn't work. burnstop is the primitive that lives outside the model's context.

test MIT

# Via GitHub (available now):
pip install git+https://github.com/santicalderon/burnstop

# Via PyPI (coming soon):
# pip install burnstop
import burnstop
burnstop.install(budget_envelope_usd=5.00, model="claude-3-5-sonnet")

# your existing code, unchanged:
from anthropic import Anthropic
client = Anthropic()
client.messages.create(...)   # burnstop intercepts, raises BudgetExceeded if over envelope

That's the entire integration. Drop-in. No refactor.


Why this exists — four real incidents

| Date | Stack | Loss | Source | |---|---|---|---| | Jul 2025 | Replit AI | prod DB + 1,206 records | Fortune | | Nov 2025 | LangChain + A2A (11-day loop) | $47,000 | Medium | | 2026 | LangGraph weekend autonomous refactor | $4,200 | DEV.to | | Apr 2026 | Cursor + Claude | PocketOS DB wiped in 9s, 30h outage | OECD.AI |

Same shape every time: no per-run budget that lives outside the model's context. The model that loops is the same one you would ask to self-throttle. burnstop is the primitive that fixes it.

What burnstop does

Before each tool call:

  1. Estimates the projected $ cost (cache_creation + cache_read + output decomposition the response headers don't expose — see anthropic-cookbook#46829)
  2. Returns OK if within envelope, raises BudgetExceeded if not
  3. After the call lands, records actual cost and updates running total
$ burnstop demo --budget 0.30
[burnstop] OK call=1 proj=$0.0442 left=$0.3000
[burnstop] CALL#1 actual=$0.0435 cache_read=0% cumul=$0.0435
[burnstop] OK call=2 proj=$0.0442 left=$0.2565
...
[burnstop] 402 BUDGET_EXCEEDED: would_spend=$0.0442 envelope_left=$0.0390

Framework adapters

burnstop ships as a core library + drop-in adapters for every major agent framework:

| Adapter | Install | Framework | |---|---|---| | burnstop-langchain | pip install burnstop-langchain | LangChain callbacks | | burnstop-langgraph | pip install burnstop-langgraph | LangGraph nodes | | burnstop-autogen | pip install burnstop-autogen | AutoGen agents | | burnstop-crewai | pip install burnstop-crewai | CrewAI crews |

Each adapter wraps the same Receipt primitive — one budget envelope, same BudgetExceeded exception, works across frameworks.

Manual usage (without monkey-patch)

from burnstop import Receipt, BudgetExceeded

r = Receipt(budget_envelope_usd=5.00, model="claude-3-5-sonnet")
try:
    r.check(input_tokens=4500, max_output=2048)
    # ... your call lands ...
    r.record(actual_response_body=response)
except BudgetExceeded as e:
    # graceful stop, don't retry
    log.warning(f"agent stopped at envelope: {e}")
