With self-driving agents, the costs stop being evident as you go, and show up after the fact. I've been building governors that slow the agents down, and then also look at odd things some of the harnesses do, such as constantly making mistakes in tool calls.
But overall, it's quite a task, and you really have to decide what you are prioritizing for. Do I want my agents doing lots of work, or (in my case), leaving some of my subscriptions available for me to do work.
