Context caching was listed as 'Available March 31, 2025' at GA, then 'Available April 15, 2025', then 'Not available' from capture 20250417195630 on, so it's recorded as unavailable. Batch prices ($0.0375 / $0.15) were listed by 2025-09-26 but aren't in this card because the text price never changed afterwards.
