From the source SKILL.md

Agentforce cost looks like "we'll just pay per run" right up until volume meets reality. A customer-service agent handling 200,000 conversations/month can consume 10× the tokens of a well-tuned version of the same agent — same quality, same topics, different token discipline. The cost drivers are predictable: topic instruction length, prompt template verbosity, grounding payload size, tool-call round-trips, and model tier. None of these are free to change, but they all respond to focused work.
