# suspect

meter: input_text
time_window: all
valid_from: 2025-10-23T20:43:27Z
rules: c
incident: helicone-2025-10-23-mistral-off-band
why:
$20/Mtok against a five-seller consensus of $0.15 — 133x, not a clean power of ten, in a catalogue whose other 94 comparable rows sit at median ratio 1.00. No correction observed through 2026-08-17, the archive's as-of date.

valid_from: 2025-10-23T20:43:27Z

incident: helicone-2025-10-23-mistral-off-band
why:
$40/Mtok against a consensus of $0.15 — 267x, log10 closeness 0.426, so not a decimal shift. No correction observed through 2026-08-17, the archive's as-of date, and the row was still driving NETSPLIT events in the archive's final fortnight.

why:
$75/Mtok against a consensus of $1.00 — 75x, log10 closeness 0.125. No correction observed through 2026-08-17, the archive's as-of date. Note the consensus side of this model carries its own identity smear (11 floating aliases across two namespaces), which is why the entry names the row and not a corrected price.

why:
$200/Mtok, 200x a three-seller consensus; corrected upstream 11 days later to $0.10/Mtok (÷2000). Part of one litellm commit that wrote 8 wrong rows over 4 models.

$150/Mtok, exactly 1000x a four-seller consensus; corrected upstream 11 days later to $0.35/Mtok. The full Class-1 signature — single seller, clean power of ten, later corrected.

why:
$0.15/Mtok against a five-seller consensus of $15.00 — exactly 10^-2, while the same listing's input_text meter is correct at ratio 1.000. A two-cell decimal error in litellm provider 'oci'; no correction observed through 2026-08-17, the archive's as-of date.

# dump_meta

key: archive_as_of_basis
value:
max(price_fact.valid_from, price_fact.valid_to, event.observed_at, model.last_seen, model_alias.last_seen) — the latest moment this archive READ a catalogue, over every layer that records one. event.occurred_at and availability.available_to are excluded: both are announced EFFECTIVE dates, they run months ahead of the page announcing them, and an as-of stamp in the future claims a reading that never happened.


key: evidence_urls
value:
benchmark_result.evidence_url is UPSTREAM'S OWN CITATION STRING, republished verbatim from Epoch AI's CC-BY-4.0 corpus and not fetched by this archive. It points wherever Epoch pointed — leaderboard pages included — and a few carry a title rather than a URL. price_fact has no such column: a price row's evidence is source_ids, which names archive-ledger rows and not pages.


key: external_references
value:
price_fact.source_ids and benchmark_result.source_snapshot_id name rows of the ARCHIVE LEDGER, which is not part of this dataset and is not redistributed. They are kept as evidence handles, not as resolvable joins.


key: license_note
value:
CC-BY-4.0 covers this derived dataset. Upstream attribution is a condition: the measurements in benchmark_result derive entirely from Epoch AI's CC-BY-4.0 benchmark corpus (the descriptive benchmark and benchmark_version rows are this archive's own curated registry, not Epoch data); the price layer derives from the LiteLLM (MIT) and models.dev (MIT) catalogues, and NO price_fact row cites a vendor page; official vendor DEPRECATION pages back 44 availability rows and the 44 event rows derived from them. See DATA-LICENSE.


key: open_interval_note
value:
price_fact.valid_to IS NULL and availability.available_to IS NULL mean OPEN AT archive_as_of, not open today. A model with no availability row is UNKNOWN, not available.


key: suspect_agreement
value:
the suspect table holds 31 rows, price_fact carries 31 rows with suspect=1, and the derivation marked 31 — all three are asserted equal before this file is published
