Problem It Solves
Closes gap: #176
Cost data is collected (LogWithCost() in internal/metrics/metrics.go) but never surfaced in any CLI output. Teams have no visibility into what their workflows cost, which types are most expensive, or whether they are approaching a spending limit.
Proposed Behavior

teamwork start shows cost estimate
$ teamwork start feature
Starting feature workflow...
Estimated cost: $1.50–$3.20 (based on 14 prior feature workflows, median: $2.03)
✓ Workflow wf-043 started.
Budget configuration in config.yaml
cost:
monthly_budget_usd: 50.00
warn_at_percent: 80 # warn when 80% consumed
block_at_percent: 100 # prompt for confirmation at 100%
When the warning threshold is hit, teamwork start prepends:
⚠️ Budget warning: $41.20 of $50.00 monthly budget consumed (82%).
When the block threshold is hit, teamwork start requires --override-budget to proceed.
New teamwork metrics cost command
teamwork metrics cost --since 7d --by workflow-type
teamwork metrics cost --workflow wf-042 # cost breakdown for a single workflow
Dependencies
internal/metrics/metrics.go Summary struct gains cost aggregations by type and role
teamwork start reads historical metrics to compute estimate range
- Config schema gains
cost section (internal/config/config.go)
- Budget check runs in
teamwork start before state file creation
