Billing failure

Cause

Section titled “Cause”

The issue logs show that no pricing information was found after google/gemini-3-flash-preview was cleaned to gemini-3-flash-preview, so the cost was recorded as 0. The reporter confirmed that pricing lookup removes the portion before the slash from the model name. Adding the name after the slash to the pricing list enables pricing; a reply also affirmed this. This configuration workaround was confirmed by the user. The issue does not specify affected versions or any code fix.

The same thread also requested local images as logos, OpenAI Chat Completions model detection, failover notifications, and highlighting of the current provider. A reply stated that failover notifications were planned and that the current channel during failover displays P1 and a normal-status indicator. No explicit response was given to the local image logo or model detection requests. These requests are outside this page's billing issue.
