Cost per merged PR

Cost per merged PR is the number most engineering leaders come to Yardstick for. It divides the AI spend attributed to an agent (or a repo, or the whole team) by the pull requests that actually merged in a period. It turns an abstract token bill into a unit you can reason about and compare across agents, tools, and teams.
