List price explained

A provider's published per-token API rate, before any subscription or discount.

Why it matters for cost

Batch API is 50% off; a cached batch can be ~5% of standard — so list price is an upper bound.

How JP the Cat surfaces it

JP the Cat reads the real token counts behind this from the local logs on your Mac and prices them at the shipped rates — so it shows up in your actual cost, not an estimate.
