The skill provides clear guidance on Perplexity cost optimization with concrete code examples for cost estimation, usage monitoring, and reduction strategies. The description adequately covers capabilities for tier selection and monitoring. However, novelty is low as these are straightforward cost optimization techniques (sampling, batching, caching) that a CLI agent could implement with basic prompting. The structure is reasonable for a single-file skill, though some sections could be more concise. The main value is consolidating Perplexity-specific pricing tiers and patterns, but the cost calculation and monitoring logic is simple enough that it doesn't dramatically reduce token usage compared to asking a CLI agent directly.
