description: FinOps framework definition for the GamerPower API. The direct public API is free with no
  metered billing surface, so there is no provider invoice to allocate. This file captures the FOCUS
  alignment for downstream tracking (consumer-side cost of integrating, RapidAPI marketplace charges,
  and unit economics for consuming apps such as Discord bots or RSS pipelines).
principles:
  - name: Visibility
    description: Even though the direct API is free, consumers should track per-call counts and consumer
      attribution so they can demonstrate fair use and detect runaway loops.
  - name: Allocation
    description: Tag every chargeable RapidAPI call with the consuming team, environment, and bot/feature
      so cost can be allocated when the marketplace tier is in use.
  - name: Optimization
    description: Cache list responses, batch lookups, and respect the 4 req/s ceiling to keep direct-API
      usage well within fair use.
  - name: Accountability
    description: Establish budget owners for the RapidAPI marketplace subscription, if any.
