Unknown: everything else. Evidence (source + quote) per feature: https://battleships.dev/data/providers/agent-relay.json → feature_evidence

## Caveats

- Public open-source agent communication/runtime platform and cloud factory. /pricing 404; no verified per-sandbox tariff. Self-hosting does not include host compute. Do not use decorative CLI examples in 404 page as evidence.
- Null values mean unknown, not free/unlimited. No model-token cost, tax or unverified ancillary charge included.
- Native browser/device/task/credit prices with unknown CPU/RAM are deliberately non-priceable. Check regime before interpreting any partial resource estimate.
- The official SDK documentation explicitly says the core SDK has no managed spawning, browser automation, cloud setup, workflow engine or proactive runtime dependencies; node providers execute on attached machines. Do not infer free compute from Cloud messaging access.

## Verified billing facts and gotchas

1. Public open-source agent communication/runtime platform and cloud factory. /pricing 404; no verified per-sandbox tariff. Self-hosting does not include host compute. Do not use decorative CLI examples in 404 page as evidence.

## Worked example

Requested: 4 vCPU/8 GiB, 50 simultaneous × 8 h/day × 22 days = **8,800 instance-hours**, 30% CPU; 50 GiB snapshots and 100 GiB egress. A month is 730 hours only when explicitly used in rate conversion.

**Total: unknown.** This product does not publish a verified complete 4-vCPU/8-GiB tariff and/or the service bills a different unit. Fifty concurrent instances and eight-hour sessions are not automatically supported. Neither 30% utilization nor retained snapshots can be converted into free resources. Use the native plan terms above and request the missing CPU/RAM, retention, egress and concurrency quote.

Page captures and documentation indexes/bundles are in `raw/`; provider JSON lists the evidence paths. HN query results were captured separately as `<id>--hn.txt`; they are discovery leads, not current tariff authority. Downloaded docs do not imply every feature was verified; unsupported assertions remain null.
