Records needed for this question
Build configuration, instance lifecycle and license metric.
How to investigate
Determine which temporary agents count under the agreement and retain the supporting usage window.
An illustrative review decision
A build system can create many agents while running only a few concurrently. Determine whether the agreement measures peak concurrency, active instances or another basis before using machine creation counts as billable demand.
What can lead to the wrong conclusion?
A large count of short-lived agents does not necessarily mean the same number of billable licenses.
The result to retain
A metric-specific build infrastructure cost explanation.
Apply the review in context
Technology Spend currently provides an evidence-first demo workspace with synthetic demonstration records. Production sources, tenant integrations and external actions remain disabled until explicitly connected and validated. Keep identified, reviewed, approved, implemented and confirmed savings distinct. Capability overlap is a review signal, not an automatic removal recommendation. Production evidence must remain separate from synthetic/demo records.
