rp cost-center create

Create a cost center: a named bucket for tagging resources.

rp cost-center create <name> [--note <text>]

Arguments

  <name>           cost center name; local to this machine

Options

  --note <text>    free-text note shown by `rp cost-center list`

Notes

Runpod's own Cost Centers are console-only, so rp keeps its cost centers locally: the buckets and their resource tags live in a per-user state file and only the spend roll-up talks to the API. Creating is idempotent on the name — an existing center is reported, never modified; delete and re-create to change its note.

Examples

# Create a bucket per client
$ rp cost-center create freelance --note "client work"

# Create one per project on a solo account
$ rp cost-center create rag-pipeline

API: none (local state: $RP_CONFIG_HOME/cost-centers.json)
