Cheapest models for cached agent workloads
Blended cost per million tokens assuming 55% of input is reused at the cache-read rate and a 25% output share — the shape of a real coding agent, not a list-price headline.

Method
reuseAdjustedBlended(model, reuse=0.55, outputShare=0.25). Input is split between list and cache-read price by the reuse ratio, then blended with output at the output share.
