Permanent receipts

  • No material semantic change has been recorded yet. Every check still leaves a receipt in the artifact; only a normalized fact movement earns a permanent page.

Raw canonical artifact: model_vendor_watch.json. Monitoring is advisory — it records what the owned sources said, and never blocks publishing.

Get an email when a maintained threshold crosses

Free. We send a change alert only when a first-party price, deprecation date, or licence term moves for a model carrying production traffic — not when a vendor page reflows.
