How is this Llama 4 Scout price page maintained?

The official route uses the provider-owned source shown above. The OpenRouter route uses an explicit model-ID mapping and the exact OpenRouter record shown above. Source failures preserve the last verified record; a price-history event is added only when a verified input, cached-input, or output rate changes.
