  "notes": "Layer 3 of the Halton Meter pricing-freshness model. Fetched by `halton-meter doctor` at https://haltonmeter.com/rates-manifest.json with a 2-second timeout and fail-open semantics. Cost computation never touches the network; this manifest is purely a freshness signal. Bump latest_bundle_date in lockstep with the BUNDLED_RATES_DATE constant in daemon/halton_meter/pricing/matrix.py whenever the bundled rates change. providers_changed_since is a free-form list of provider/model identifiers an operator running an older daemon should know are stale."
