Usage limits

Usage limits protect hosted reliability and control cost.

Overview

The control plane records usage events and rollups.

Engine-level metering should continue to expand for rows read, rows written, vector operations, capability invocations, result bytes, and storage.

The usage metric capability_invocations_month is accepted as clear public wording. The older agent_runs_month key remains a compatibility alias for the same counter.

Free access requires invite approval during controlled beta.

Broader free access should wait until abuse controls have enough operational history.

Developer notes

  • Reject work before a tenant exceeds hard caps.
  • Track cost-bearing capability and vector operations.
  • Show warnings before spend caps are reached.
  • Make cancellation release resources and stop new work.
