Description

## Overview

One of the huge and persistent downsides of AWS is lack of strict budget management. You can set budgets and get warnings, but that's about it. There's no built-in way to tell AWS "don't charge me for more than X".

We can fix this, though. Using the cost services and tying the budget alert to logic, we can start to throttle the website as budget limits are approached.

Research direction

Start by researching the AWS cost services and budget-alert mechanisms described in the issue, then trace how the website could respond as limits are approached. Define the throttling behavior and budget thresholds before identifying the project entry points to change. Done means the site reliably limits usage at the specified budget boundary.
