Admin-configured price overrides can now be validated for and pushed down to managed-policy clients
What
- The gateway config validator, which previously required an
admin:block for pricing settings to take effect, now also accepts amanaged:block containing at least one policy, since both the admin spend meter and themodelPricingsent to clients read the same pricing config. - The gateway can now compute a per-deployment
modelPricingobject (a price multiplier plus per-model overrides) from anadmin.pricing-style config, and merges it into each managed policy'sclisettings, but only for policies that don't already specify their ownmodelPricing. It logs how many policies received the pushed pricing. - The dead-code checker that warns about pricing overrides that can never take effect was updated for the case where there's no admin/meter block: in that case, an override is only considered reachable if it sits on the first upstream that would actually serve that model.
Why
This lets pricing overrides configured under admin.pricing reach managed-policy clients automatically, and improves the accuracy of warnings about pricing overrides that would silently never apply.
Names in the bundlemodelPricing
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Added since
A small documentation edit on Manage costs effectively touched a line naming modelPricing after this was published.
Set `multiplier` below 1 for a flat discount or above 1 for a markup, list each model's four per-token rates under `overrides`, or do both. A markup requires Claude Code v2.1.271 or later. The [`modelPricing` entry](/docs/en/settings-refer…costs see the edit
Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up modelPricing, on Claude Code changelog.
* Added support for a `multiplier` above 1, up to 10, in the `modelPricing` managed setting and the Claude apps gateway `pricing` block, for marked-up internal chargeback rateschangelog see the edit
