Tool-Call Overspending: Logic Gate Enforcement

Economics · updated Mon Feb 23

Preventing agents from calling expensive tools unnecessarily.

Steps

  1. Estimate the cost of a tool call before execution.
  2. Require 'Confidence Scores' > 0.9 before triggering expensive APIs.
  3. Implement a 'Human-in-the-loop' gate for costs over $0.10.
  4. Cache tool outputs for identical input parameters for 24 hours.
  5. Use smaller, cheaper models to pre-process tool requirements.
