[ubiquition]

A new engineering article on separating a generated result from its still-pending bill.

The article follows the media-task completion path in PR #1505: explicit cost states, delivery while credits remain reserved, bounded billing lookups, and a durable charge request. It also explains the limits of recovering an interrupted paid request.

Questions about the implementation and its tradeoffs are welcome here. The article describes merged source, not a production release.
