description: >-
  FOCUS-aligned FinOps profile for Bitbucket Pipelines. Costs come from the
  Bitbucket Cloud per-user subscription (Standard/Premium), Pipelines
  build-minute consumption (with per-tier free allotment plus $10/1,000
  minute add-on packs), Premium-only advanced security charges, plus the
  customer's own infrastructure cost for self-hosted runners (free at the
  Pipelines layer).
notes: >-
  Atlassian invoices monthly in USD per workspace; the Bitbucket admin
  Pipelines usage page shows minute consumption per repository, suitable for
  chargeback. Self-hosted runner labels can also be used as cost-allocation
  tags.
