Hi,I’m CY Lee from the DevOps/SRE team. With the launch of Air API, we’ve been building out our internal infrastructure monitoring system. Along the way, we developed an OpenClaw plugin—and in this post, I’d like to walk you through what we built and why it matters. 🙂 Before We Start If you’ve used OpenClaw for a while, you’ve probably experienced something like this at least once. The moment you try to connect an external model provider, you find yourself going through the

Across industries, job functions, and academia, more teams are building their own AI agent assistants and putting them to work. But the longer you run them, the harder it is to ignore one unavoidable reality: cost . An API invoice larger than your monthly subscription fee, quietly accumulating call by call, has become a familiar sight. AI agents don't call a model once per task. They call it tens or even hundreds of times per job -- planning, invoking tools, verifying results
