Cost-aware architecture skill inspired by The Frugal Architect and adapted for The Boring JavaScript Stack. Treat cost as a first-class non-functional requirement, align system shape to the business model, make trade-offs explicit, observe cost and waste, add cost controls, optimize incrementally, and challenge stale assumptions. Use this skill when shaping infrastructure, architecture, scaling, observability, performance, background jobs, caching, or product-engineering trade-offs.
