When does this happen?
IF When using OpenAI o3-mini or o1 models, the cost calculation excludes reasoning tokens from the completion token count, leading to underestimated total cost.
How others solved it
THEN Modify the cost calculation logic in the callback handler to retrieve reasoning tokens from usage_metadata['output_token_details']['reasoning'] and add them to the completion_tokens before computing the completion cost. This ensures billing matches OpenAI's pricing structure for reasoning models.
if 'reasoning' in usage_metadata.get('output_token_details', {}):
completion_tokens += usage_metadata['output_token_details']['reasoning']Related patterns
