70
+ If no API key is saved for the active provider yet, `nvicode` prompts for one on first use.
71
+ By default, the proxy paces upstream NVIDIA requests at `40 RPM`. Override that with `NVICODE_MAX_RPM` if your account has a different limit.
72
+ The usage dashboard compares your local NVIDIA run cost against Claude Opus 4.6 at `$5 / MTok input` and `$25 / MTok output`, based on Anthropic pricing as of `2026-03-30`.
73
+ If your NVIDIA endpoint is not free, override local cost estimates with `NVICODE_INPUT_USD_PER_MTOK` and `NVICODE_OUTPUT_USD_PER_MTOK`.
74
+ Local `usage`, `activity`, and `dashboard` commands are available for NVIDIA proxy sessions. OpenRouter sessions use OpenRouter's direct connection path instead.
