1//! The canonical token-usage types and their conventions.

3//! # Reasoning tokens
4//!
5//! `CanonicalUsage::reasoning_tokens` is a **breakdown of** `output_tokens`,
6//! never an addition to it. Providers disagree on the wire, so every adapter
7//! normalises to that one rule before the count reaches billing:
8//!
9//! * `OpenAI` (chat and responses) already folds
10//!   `*_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens` into `completion_tokens` /
11//!   `output_tokens`, so the adapter copies it across untouched.
12//! * Gemini reports `thoughtsTokenCount` *beside* `candidatesTokenCount` (and
13//!   inside `totalTokenCount`), so its adapter adds it into `output_tokens` on
14//!   the way in.
15//! * Anthropic bills thinking as ordinary output tokens and, for adaptive
16//!   thinking on Claude 5 models, reports the share as
17//!   `usage.output_tokens_details.thinking_tokens`; the adapter copies it
18//!   across untouched. Models that report no details yield 0.
19//!
20//! Holding that invariant here is what makes reasoning billable: cost is
21//! computed from `output_tokens`, so a reasoning-only turn is charged at the
22//! output rate with no per-provider arithmetic downstream, and no count is
23//! charged twice. It is also why `reasoning_tokens` is absent from the
24//! `total_tokens` sum in [`CanonicalUsageUpdate::apply_to`].
25//!
26//! Third-party `OpenAI`-compatible upstreams (Cerebras, Moonshot, Qwen) are not
27//! probed, so `CanonicalUsage::normalise_reasoning` enforces the rule at
28//! runtime rather than trusting it: a breakdown cannot exceed its parent, and a
29//! wire `total_tokens` that overshoots `input + output` by exactly the
30//! reasoning count is the same signal: because `input_tokens` excludes cache
31//! reads, an additive provider's wire total is exactly `billable_total() +
32//! reasoning_tokens`, while a conforming one states `billable_total()` alone.
33//! Either signal means the provider reported reasoning *additionally*, so the
34//! count is folded into `output_tokens` and warned about. The total-based half
35//! fires on both paths: [`CanonicalUsageUpdate`] carries the wire's own
36//! `total_tokens` when a frame states one, and
37//! [`CanonicalUsageUpdate::apply_to`] recomputes only when it does not — and a
38//! recomputed total is `billable_total()`, which is never the additive shape.
39//!
40//! # Cache tokens
41//!
42//! `input_tokens` is **exclusive** of `cache_read_tokens` on every wire.
43//! Anthropic reports the two disjointly; `OpenAI`, Gemini and the
44//! `OpenAI`-compatible upstreams report the cached count as a *subset* of the
45//! prompt count, so their adapters subtract it before it reaches this type.
46//! Billing therefore charges each token exactly once, at exactly one rate, and
47//! `CanonicalUsage::billable_total` is the only definition of `tokens_used`.
