the error register
NIKA-AGENT-005
the provider reported no token usage for a priced model — every budget and ledger reads the turn as free, so the loop fails closed (R3-F1 · the usage-absence gate). A typed refusal, one of 103 the registry names: stable code, spec category, the transient flag the retry machinery reads. The engine stamps this page's address on the finding itself. Route on the code, never on prose. Machines read the catalog.
