# Multi-Cloud Pricing Analysis

This skill provides comparative pricing metrics for infrastructure components across major cloud providers, enabling cost-effective architecture planning.

## When to Use This Skill

*   When planning migration to the cloud.
*   To optimize existing infrastructure costs.
*   To perform "what-if" scenarios for scaling up services.

## Core Capabilities

1.  **Cross-Cloud Querying**: Fetches up-to-date pricing data via provider APIs.
2.  **Resource Normalization**: Matches equivalent instance types (e.g., vCPUs, RAM) across providers.
3.  **Cost Projections**: Estimates monthly/yearly spend based on usage patterns.

## Example Usage

**User**: "Compare the cost of a 16 vCPU, 64GB RAM instance on AWS and GCP."

**Agent Action**:
```bash
python3 src/cloud_tools/pricing_comparator.py --vcpu 16 --ram 64 --providers aws,gcp
```
