+## Workflow Tiers (GitHub Actions Cost Optimization)
+
+qa-architect now defaults to **minimal CI** to avoid unexpected GitHub Actions bills. Choose the tier that matches your needs:
+
+### Minimal (Default) - $0-5/month
+
+**Best for:** Solo developers, side projects, open source
+
+- Single Node version (22) testing
+- Security scans run weekly (not on every commit)
+- Path filters skip CI for docs/README changes
+- **Runtime:** ~5-10 min/commit
+- **Est. cost:** ~$0-5/mo for typical projects (2-5 commits/day)
+
+```bash
+npx create-qa-architect@latest
+# or explicitly:
+npx create-qa-architect@latest --workflow-minimal
+```
+
+### Standard - $5-20/month
+
+**Best for:** Small teams, client projects, production apps
+
+- Matrix testing (Node 20 + 22) **only on main branch**
+- Security scans run weekly
+- Path filters enabled
+- **Runtime:** ~15-20 min/commit
+- **Est. cost:** ~$5-20/mo for typical projects
+
+```bash
+npx create-qa-architect@latest --workflow-standard
+```
+
+### Comprehensive - $100-350/month
+
+**Best for:** Enterprise teams, high-compliance projects, large teams
+
+- Matrix testing (Node 20 + 22) on **every commit**
+- Security scans inline (every commit)
+- No path filters (runs on all changes)
+- **Runtime:** ~50-100 min/commit
+- **Est. cost:** ~$100-350/mo for typical projects
+
+```bash
+npx create-qa-architect@latest --workflow-comprehensive
+```
+
+### Switching Between Tiers
