Mechanism for setting a cap on cost

I want to say "@claude spend up to $5 trying to do X"

Our base action has a max_turns option. Is that something we should expose? https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-base-action/?tab=readme-ov-file#inputs

PR #1189 adds token counts as step outputs, which makes budget enforcement possible via a downstream workflow step - you can check the outputs after each run and fail or alert if cost exceeds a threshold. Doesn't add a hard cap inside the action itself, but gives you the data to implement one at the workflow level.
