AzGuard is a free command-line tool for Azure and AWS, published by Poietes LLC.

## CLI

Source checked: https://github.com/cdobratz/AzGuard commit bdeb046116f29541185f884ce6c940d44299cec8 (main, 2026-10-18).

- `azguard resources` finds idle and orphaned resources and prints a monthly list-price estimate. The command is read-only.
- `azguard watch` polls the Azure Activity Log and AWS CloudTrail. The default interval is 15 minutes. It can notify the desktop or a webhook you pass with `--webhook`.
- `azguard guard` checks billable commands against a session budget.
- `azguard status`, `azguard scan`, `azguard budget`, and `azguard cost` cover Azure free-tier usage, budgets, and cost.
- `azguard aws` covers AWS free-tier usage and cost.
- The limits files list 12 Azure services (`configs/free_tier_limits.yaml`) and 13 AWS services (`configs/aws_free_tier_limits.yaml`).
- `azguard cleanup` prints a static guide. Automatic cleanup is coming soon.
- The CLI has no telemetry client. It calls Azure and AWS for the command you run, public price-list APIs when an estimate needs them, and a webhook only when you set one.
