Understand what Cargo is costing — remaining credits, usage broken down by workflow, connector, or agent, subscription state, and invoice history. Triggers: \"how many credits do I have left\", \"what did that cost\", \"why is my bill so high\", \"am I about to run out\", \"will this fit in our budget\", \"show me my invoices\", \"how much have I spent this month\", \"what plan am I on\", \"what do I get for free\", \"how many free credits\", \"can I afford this run\". Needs a token with admin access. Skip when: attributing spend to specific nodes or cutting a play cost — use cargo-diagnostics.
