Original interpretation: When OpenClaw costs get out of control, the first thing to break is never the unit price, but the judgment framework.

If OpenClaw API fee control only focuses on the unit price of the model, it will usually turn into an illusion of cheapness in the end: the book will look good in the short term, but structural waste will still quietly accumulate in the background. This paper reconstructs a cost framework including budget boundaries, task layering and entry routing.
