ModelRouter/internal/lua/plugins/billing.lua

-- billing.lua — usage accounting plugin for ModelRouter.
--
-- Computes what each request cost, from three configurable dimensions:
--
--   source  a flat per-request price for an upstream source
--   model   a per-token price for a model id (prompt / completion separately)
--   key     an override price for one gateway key
--
-- It then keeps running totals for the whole gateway, per source, per model
-- and per key, and publishes them in `plugin.state` so the kernel can serve
-- them at GET /api/plugins/billing/state — which is what its own dashboard
-- component reads.
--
-- ACCOUNTING BOUNDARY (important, and deliberate):
-- this plugin REPORTS; it does not ENFORCE. The gateway's own quota accounting
-- (internal/gateway/stats.go, enforced at request admission) stays
-- authoritative for limits. Two independent accounting paths that disagree are
-- worse than one that is slightly less featureful, so nothing here feeds back
-- into routing or quota decisions.
--
-- PRICE CONFIGURATION
-- Prices are supplied as a Lua table assigned to `billing.prices` before the
-- plugin is loaded, OR at runtime through PUT /api/plugins/billing/state. The
-- shape is:
--
--   billing.prices = {
--     currency = "USD",              -- display only, no conversion happens
--     default  = { prompt = 0, completion = 0, per_request = 0 },
--     sources  = {
--       ["localzen"]  = { per_request = 0.0 },
--       ["trae"]      = { per_request = 0.01 },
--     },
--     models   = {
--       ["gpt-5.4"]   = { prompt = 1.25e-6, completion = 1e-5 },  -- USD per TOKEN
--       ["kimi-k3"]   = { prompt = 6e-7,  completion = 2.5e-6 },
--       ["kolors"]    = { per_request = 0.04 },                    -- image: flat
--     },
--     keys     = {
--       -- by gateway key (the same value the audit log masks to ***xxxxxx)
--       ["***a1b2c3"] = { prompt = 1.1e-6, completion = 9e-6 },
--     },
--   }
--
-- Precedence for a token price: keys > models > default. A flat per_request
-- price, when present at any level, is ADDED on top of the token cost, so an
-- image model can carry both (e.g. tokens billed plus a fixed fee).
--
-- Numbers are USD per single token, which is how providers publish prices. That
-- makes a typical entry look like 1.25e-6; the plugin multiplies by the token
-- count, so no unit conversion happens anywhere.

-- ---------- prices ----------

-- plugin.prices can be pre-seeded by embedding this file (an operator edits the
-- table below) or replaced at runtime through the state API. It is a SEPARATE
-- field from plugin.state on purpose: PUT /api/plugins/billing/state replaces
-- `state` wholesale, and prices must not live there or a price update would
-- wipe the accumulated totals. See docs/plugins.md.
local DEFAULT_PRICES = {
  currency = "USD",
  default  = { prompt = 0, completion = 0, per_request = 0 },
  sources  = {},
  models   = {},
  keys     = {},
}
plugin.prices = DEFAULT_PRICES

-- ---------- accumulated totals ----------

-- state is what the kernel serves at GET /api/plugins/billing/state. It holds
-- ACCUMULATED TOTALS ONLY — prices live in plugin.prices (see above), so
-- replacing state never destroys a price table and updating prices never
-- destroys history.
--
-- Structure:
--   total          { cost, requests, prompt_tokens, completion_tokens }
--   by_source      { <name> = { cost, requests, ...tokens } }
--   by_model       { <model> = { cost, ... } }
--   by_key         { <masked key id> = { cost, ... } }
--   by_day         { "YYYY-MM-DD" = { cost, ... } }
--   top_sources    [ {name, cost, requests}, ... ]   sorted, capped
--   top_models     [ ... ]
--   top_keys       [ ... ]
--
-- Sorted top-N lists are maintained incrementally rather than re-sorted on
-- every request: this hook runs once per request on the hot path, so it does
-- map updates only. The sort happens when state is READ.

-- ---------- pricing ----------

-- lookup walks keys > models > default and returns a price triple plus whether
-- a flat per_request component applies.

  local p = plugin.prices or DEFAULT_PRICES
  local d = p.default or {}
  local out = { prompt = d.prompt or 0, completion = d.completion or 0, per_request = 0 }

  local mp = p.models and p.models[payload.model]
  if mp then
    if mp.prompt ~= nil then out.prompt = mp.prompt end
    if mp.completion ~= nil then out.completion = mp.completion end
    if mp.per_request ~= nil then out.per_request = out.per_request + mp.per_request end
  end

  -- source dimension: usually a flat fee, but may also carry token prices
  local sp = p.sources and p.sources[payload.source]
  if sp then
    if sp.prompt ~= nil then out.prompt = sp.prompt end
    if sp.completion ~= nil then out.completion = sp.completion end
    if sp.per_request ~= nil then out.per_request = out.per_request + sp.per_request end
  end

  -- key dimension wins over the others (an operator pricing one customer
  -- specially must be able to override both the model and the source price)
  local kp = p.keys and p.keys[payload.key]
  if kp then
    if kp.prompt ~= nil then out.prompt = kp.prompt end
    if kp.completion ~= nil then out.completion = kp.completion end

end

-- costFor computes one request's price.
--
-- A FAILED request still costs money whenever the upstream billed for it, which
-- the kernel cannot know; the conservative and useful default is to charge
-- failed requests their token cost (a 500 after generation still consumed
-- tokens) but NOT a flat per_request fee that was never actually charged. That
-- is what the `ok` flag selects below, and it is the single most debatable
-- policy in this file — it is a config toggle so an operator can flip it.

  -- the host build has no os.date (keeps the plugin from erroring out on a
  -- stripped runtime, which would otherwise look like a plugin failure).

  -- a fresh plugin, and an admin who PUT a partial state (e.g. only "prices"),

  end

  -- Daily rollup, so the dashboard can draw a trend without the browser
  -- re-deriving it. Keyed off the request's own timestamp, not os.time(), so a
  -- replayed or imported record lands on the right day.
  local ts = payload.time
