AI cost Retrieval source inspector

Shows which retrieved passages influenced an answer and where coverage is weak for token, model, tool, and inference economics; it is designed to make usage, quality, latency, and budget tradeoffs calculable. Source selection synchronizes passage, citation, freshness, and relevance. The ai cost and pricing variant is specialized for estimates must expose units, assumptions, and uncertainty. Users can make usage, quality, latency, and budget tradeoffs calculable while understanding the current state, available choices, and resulting consequence.

Implementation field notes

Use ai cost retrieval source inspector confidently.

The preview and source are only the starting point. Use these notes to decide where the component fits, preserve its accessibility contract, and verify the adapted result.

Good fit for

  • AI pricing
  • Inference plan
  • Shows which retrieved passages influenced an answer and where coverage is weak for token, model, tool, and inference economics

This ai pricing pattern works best when its purpose is clear in the surrounding page hierarchy.

Accessibility contract

  • The primary purpose and current state remain available as text and do not depend on color, motion, pointer position, or visual geometry.
  • Every interaction has keyboard equivalence, visible focus, predictable Escape behavior where applicable, and appropriately scoped status announcements.
  • Reduced-motion, 200% zoom, long-content, narrow-container, and forced-color behavior are part of the implementation acceptance criteria.

Integration plan

  1. Copy the standalone HTML and scoped CSS into an isolated page.
  2. Adapt primary signal, secondary signal, layered surface, primary text through the Inspector.
  3. Connect the defensive JavaScript, then test every control with a keyboard.
  4. Review the result at 375, 768, 1024, and 1440 pixels before shipping.
