-# AWS FinOps Dashboard (CLI)
-
-The AWS FinOps Dashboard is an open-source, Python-based command-line tool (built with the Rich library) for AWS cost monitoring. It provides multi-account cost summaries by time period, service, and cost allocation tags; budget limits vs. actuals; EC2 instance status; six‑month cost trend charts; and "FinOps audit" reports (e.g. untagged or idle resources). It can export data to CSV/JSON/PDF.

+## 🎯 Three Dashboard Types
 
-### Option 3: Using uv (Fast Python Package Installer)
-[uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) is a modern Python package installer and resolver that's extremely fast.
+**Enterprise FinOps Platform provides three distinct, mutually exclusive dashboard types:**
 
+### 1. **Default Dashboard** - Real-Time Cost Analysis
 ```bash
-# Install runbooks aws finops dashboard
-uv pip install runbooks
+runbooks finops --profile [PROFILE]
 ```
+- **Purpose**: Current month cost analysis with service breakdown
+- **Output**: Multi-account cost overview with budget status
+- **Use Case**: Daily cost monitoring and budget tracking
+- **Audience**: FinOps teams, Finance analysts
+- **Performance**: <15s execution for enterprise accounts
 
----
-
-## AWS CLI Profile Setup
-
-If you haven't already, configure your named profiles using the AWS CLI:
-
+### 2. **Trend Dashboard** - Strategic Historical Analysis  
 ```bash
-aws configure --profile profile1-name
-aws configure --profile profile2-name
-# ... etc ...
+runbooks finops --trend --profile [PROFILE]
 ```
+- **Purpose**: 6-month historical cost trends with quarterly intelligence
+- **Output**: Month-over-month analysis with strategic recommendations
+- **Use Case**: Strategic planning and trend identification
+- **Audience**: Executives, Strategic planning teams
+- **Features**: FinOps expert trend logic with color-coded insights
 
-Single AWS profile, centralised-ops, billing, ... multi-account LZ
+### 3. **Audit Dashboard** - Resource Optimization
+```bash
+runbooks finops --audit --profile [PROFILE]
+```
+- **Purpose**: Untagged resources and optimization opportunities
+- **Output**: Resource cleanup recommendations with cost impact
+- **Use Case**: Cost optimization and resource governance
+- **Audience**: CloudOps teams, Compliance officers
+- **Value**: Immediate cost reduction identification
 
-Repeat this for all the profiles you want the dashboard to potentially access.
+**⚠️ Important**: Dashboard types are mutually exclusive - use one type per command execution.

-## Export Formats
 
-### CSV Output Format
-
-When exporting to CSV, a file is generated with the following columns:
-
-- `CLI Profile`
-- `AWS Account ID`
-- `Last Month Cost` (or previous period based on time range)
-- `Current Month Cost` (or current period based on time range)
-- `Cost By Service` (Each service and its cost appears on a new line within the cell)
-- `Budget Status` (Each budget's limit and actual spend appears on a new line within the cell)
-- `EC2 Instances` (Each instance state and its count appears on a new line within the cell)
-
-**Note:** Due to the multi-line formatting in some cells, it's best viewed in spreadsheet software (like Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc) rather than plain text editors.
-
-### JSON Output Format
-
-When exporting to JSON, a structured file is generated that includes all dashboard data in a format that's easy to parse programmatically.
-
-### PDF Output Format (for Audit Report)
-
-When exporting to PDF, a file is generated with the following columns:
-
-- `Profile`
-- `Account ID`
-- `Untagged Resources`
-- `Stopped EC2 Instances`
-- `Unused Volumes`
-- `Unused EIPs`
-- `Budget Alerts`
-
----
-
-## Cost For Every Run
-
-This script makes API calls to AWS, primarily to Cost Explorer, Budgets, EC2, and STS. AWS may charge for Cost Explorer API calls (typically `$0.01` for each API call, check current pricing).
-
-The number of API calls depends heavily on the options used:

+runbooks finops --time-range 90 --profile $BILLING_PROFILE
 
-- **Default dashboard when `--audit` or `--trend` flags not used**: 
-  - It costs you $0.06 for one AWS Profile and $0.03 extra for each AWS profile queried.
-- **Cost Trend dashboard when `--trend` flag is used**:
-  - It costs you $0.03 for each AWS profile queried.
-- **Audit Dashboard when `--audit` flag is used**:
-  - Free
+# Cost threshold customization
+runbooks finops --high-cost-threshold 10000 --profile $BILLING_PROFILE
 
-**To minimize API calls and potential costs:**
+# Display customization for large environments
+runbooks finops --profile-display-length 25 --max-services-text 15
+```
 
-- Use the `--profiles` argument to specify only the profiles you need.
-- Consider using the `--combine` option when working with multiple profiles from the same AWS account.
+## 💰 AWS Cost Impact
 
-The exact cost per run is usually negligible but depends on the scale of your usage and AWS pricing.
+**API Usage Optimization:**
+- **Default Dashboard**: $0.06 single profile + $0.03 per additional profile
+- **Trend Analysis**: $0.03 per profile (Cost Explorer historical data)
+- **Audit Dashboard**: $0.00 (uses existing resource APIs)
 
----
+**Cost Optimization Best Practices:**
+- Use `--combine` for same-account profiles to reduce API calls
+- Specify `--profiles` to limit analysis to required accounts
+- Consider `--time-range` to optimize Cost Explorer queries
