# Monte Carlo Storage Cost Analysis Skill This skill analyzes a data warehouse for stale tables that can be removed to reduce storage costs. It delegates classification, safety scoring, and formatting to the `analyze_storage_costs` MCP tool, then presents the pre-formatted result verbatim and handles follow-up questions (category drill-downs, lineage checks). > **Monte Carlo tool routing (required):** Always call Monte Carlo MCP tools through this plugin's > bundled server, whose fully-qualified tool names are > `mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__<tool>` (e.g. > `mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__get_alerts`). Bare tool names used in this skill > (`get_alerts`, `search`, `get_table`, …) refer to that bundled server. If the session also has a > separately-configured `monte-carlo-mcp` server, do **not** route to it — it may point at a > different endpoint or credentials.

What does the monte-carlo-storage-cost-analysis skill do?
Analyze a warehouse for stale, unused, or redundant tables via the analyze_storage_costs MCP tool. Classifies waste patterns and table categories, computes safety tiers, and handles category drill-downs and lineage follow-ups.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill monte-carlo-storage-cost-analysis --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
