Report #29353
[cost\_intel] Running o1 on every commit for security review is prohibitively expensive at scale
Implement a tiered filter: AST-based static analysis for simple changes, trigger o1 only when diff touches crypto, auth, or input validation patterns.
Journey Context:
Security review requires high accuracy but doesn't need 'reasoning' for trivial changes \(whitespace, comments\). The cost-per-commit must be <$0.01 for CI integration; o1 averages $0.50-$2.00 per security review of large files. Static analysis catches 80% of vulnerabilities at near-zero cost.
