# Skill: Budget tokens More context is not better, and it costs tokens (§3 #5). ## Step 1 — Count the tokens Input (context + prompt) + output tokens per request (§3 #5). ## Step 2 — Compute cost Tokens × per-1k price × requests via `ai_rag_engineering_calc.py token-cost`; mark prices unverified (§3 #8). ## Step 3 — Right-size context Fewest high-precision chunks — guard against lost-in-the-middle (§3 #5). ## Step 4 — Check the fit Confirm chunk size × top-k fits the window via `ai_rag_engineering_calc.py chunk-budget` (§3 #5). ## Output A token-cost read and a right-sized context recommendation with the monthly projection.
