Cost states reference

Behind the four provider tabs on usage and cost, Speedwave tracks more cost states than the UI shows directly. Which state applies depends on the model provider a project uses.

State	Meaning
catalog	Priced from the in-repo Anthropic catalog (API key)
subscription	Flat-rate, no per-request price (dash)
free	No charge, no price applies (dash: local models)
actual	Real price returned by the provider (OpenRouter)
deferred	Not priced yet, retried on your next visit to the usage page
unknown	No matching catalog entry or an unrecognized provider, never retried
failed	Request failed, never billed
(pending)	Not yet costed at all

Of these, only deferred is ever re-priced later. Every other state, including unknown, is final even if a later fetch would have found a different price. A request that fails is never billed, whichever provider you use.
