What
The usage fetch gained an at-wall mode that asks the server to skip computing spend, reported separately in telemetry.
Details
- Requests
/api/oauth/usage?at_wall=1&skip_spend=1 and reports as api_usage_fetch_at_wall rather than api_usage_fetch. - Chosen by the caller; the plain endpoint and metric remain for everything else.
Evidence
/api/oauth/usage?at_wall=1&skip_spend=1
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
