Implements the ByteTinker-Bold distribution-agreement billing math and surfaces it on a standalone admin-only route. No UI (the API figure is the deliverable). Server-side only. Contract math (lib/billing.js, config-driven; defaults ARE the agreement): - ASD (per device/day) = min(1.0, online_seconds / (hours*3600)) # 28800 default - BillableScreens (per month) = round-half-up( Sum ASD / days_in_month ) - Flat tier (not marginal): 1-499 $1.50 / 500-999 $1.25 / 1000+ $1.00; cost = screens*rate. Single global rate card for now (per-tenant is a future concern; noted in code). Data foundation: - New durable rollup device_usage_daily(device_id, day 'YYYY-MM-DD', online_seconds), index on day. status_log (3d) / telemetry (24h) can't back a billing month. - Accumulated INCREMENTALLY off the heartbeat tick from the live connection map (same source as devices_connected) - never reconstructed from logs. Each tick credits every connected device's today-row (min(86400, +elapsed)), chunked + transactional (non-blocking); per-tick credit capped (accrualCapSeconds) as a stall/restart guard. - Retention ~400d, pruned via chunked-prune (pruneUsageDaily in runMaintenance). API: GET /api/billing/usage?month=YYYY-MM (default current), requirePlatformAdmin, mounted SEPARATELY from /api/status (billing is revenue data + a heavier aggregate; must not touch the hot status path). Reads the rollup only. MTD figure averages over COMPLETED days only (today shown in `daily` but excluded until it completes); is_final + billable_screens_final appear once the month completes. Tests (12): ASD math; billable round-half-up; flat tier/cost boundaries; accumulator (accrues by interval, caps at 86400/day, disconnected doesn't accrue); report MTD-excludes- today + final-month is_final; retention prune; endpoint authz (admin 200 / non-admin 403 / anon 401) + billing absent from /api/status. Suite 301/301. First-full-month caveat + formula in docs/billing.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Billing — Usage Metering (ByteTinker–Bold Media distribution agreement)
|
||
|
||
**This is the contractual SYSTEM-OF-RECORD for invoicing (agreement §4.1/§4.2).** The math
|
||
below is implemented exactly in `server/lib/billing.js`; the defaults in `config.billing`
|
||
ARE the agreement — change them only if the contract changes.
|
||
|
||
## The formula
|
||
|
||
- **Provisioned Screen** — any device registered/provisioned. Provisioning alone is **not**
|
||
billed.
|
||
- **Active Screen-Day (ASD)** — per device, per calendar day:
|
||
```
|
||
ASD = min(1.0, online_seconds_that_day / (BILLING_HOURS_PER_DAY * 3600)) # denom = 28800 (8h)
|
||
```
|
||
Online ≥ 8h → 1.0; 4h → 0.5; offline → 0. Time beyond 8h does **not** increase it.
|
||
- **Billable Screens** — per billing month:
|
||
```
|
||
BillableScreens = round( Σ ASD (all devices, all calendar days in month) / days_in_month )
|
||
```
|
||
i.e. the average number of screens active during a standard 8-hour day, **rounded half up**.
|
||
- **Tier** — FLAT (not marginal): the single rate for the month's total Billable Screens.
|
||
|
||
| Billable Screens | Rate / screen / month |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| 1 – 499 | $1.50 |
|
||
| 500 – 999 | $1.25 |
|
||
| 1000 or more | $1.00 |
|
||
|
||
- **Cost (USD)** = BillableScreens × applicable tier rate.
|
||
|
||
Single **global** rate card for now; per-tenant rate cards are a future concern (would key
|
||
the rate table by workspace/org). All values are config-driven: `BILLING_HOURS_PER_DAY`,
|
||
`BILLING_RATE_TABLE` (JSON override), `BILLING_USAGE_RETENTION_DAYS`.
|
||
|
||
## Data foundation
|
||
|
||
- **`device_usage_daily(device_id, day 'YYYY-MM-DD', online_seconds)`** — a durable daily
|
||
rollup, one tiny row per device per calendar day (`day` is **UTC**). `device_status_log`
|
||
(3-day) and `device_telemetry` (~24h) cannot back a billing month, so this is separate.
|
||
- **Accumulated incrementally** off the heartbeat tick from the **live connection map**
|
||
(`services/heartbeat.js` `deviceConnections` — the same source `devices_connected` uses),
|
||
never reconstructed from logs. Each tick credits every connected device's today-row with
|
||
the elapsed seconds (`online_seconds = min(86400, online_seconds + credit)`), chunked and
|
||
transactional so it never blocks the event loop. Per-tick credit is capped
|
||
(`BILLING_ACCRUAL_CAP_SECONDS`) so a stalled loop / restart gap can't inject a bogus credit.
|
||
- **Retention** ~400 days, pruned via the chunked-prune helper (`pruneUsageDaily`) so it can
|
||
never bloat-then-freeze.
|
||
|
||
## API (admin-only, standalone route)
|
||
|
||
`GET /api/billing/usage?month=YYYY-MM` (default: current month) — platform-admin gated,
|
||
mounted separately from `/api/status` (billing is revenue data and a heavier aggregate; it
|
||
must not touch the hot status path). Reads the rollup only. Returns:
|
||
`{ month, days_in_month, days_elapsed, provisioned_screens, billable_screens,
|
||
billable_screens_final?, is_final, tier, rate_usd, cost_usd, daily:[{day, active_screen_days}] }`.
|
||
|
||
**Month-to-date rule:** for the current month the average is computed over **completed
|
||
calendar days only** — today accrues live and appears in `daily` but is excluded from the
|
||
running average until it completes, so a partial today doesn't drag the estimate.
|
||
`billable_screens_final` and `is_final:true` appear only once the month is complete.
|
||
|
||
## First-full-month caveat
|
||
|
||
Metering starts accumulating **at deploy**. The first partial calendar month is incomplete
|
||
(and there is **no backfill** — `device_status_log` only holds 3 days). **The first FULL,
|
||
clean billing month is the first whole calendar month after beta7 is deployed.**
