Thanks! Actually I already built Option 1 (JSON files + compare command), just haven't published it yet. Will be in the next release.

But your comment made me think about Option 2 more - exporting metrics to existing monitoring stacks, OTel/Prometheus. For teams already using them, that might actually be "dead simple" since there's no new tool setup or learn.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

I'm not sure how AWS logs work since I'm just used to looking at Cost Explorer... But I would assume they actually store the history themselves, and you can just pull it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into that.

Btw, the previous version didn't detect EBS volumes attached to stopped instances. I just released new patch version for that.
