# Dollar caps: reserve, settle, and the limits of an estimate
|
|
|
|
cap 5000 microdollars; every call really costs 2000; maxTokens 256 (estimate about 2,570)
|
|
call 1: answered, cost 2000, spent so far 2000
|
|
call 2: answered, cost 2000, spent so far 4000
|
|
call 3: rejected before the provider was called (provider calls so far: 2)
|
|
|
|
cap 8000; prompt estimated at 100 tokens but the provider counts 3000 (code, other scripts, images do this)
|
|
spent after 2 calls: 12200 (cap 8000); the second call was admitted on its estimate
|
|
|
|
cap 2700, a two-call tool loop: rejected on the SECOND model call; tool executions so far: 1
