Set up Billing Structures

Use the `create_price_plan` tool to define new pricing tiers. This lets you model complex rate cards for different services. Need a whole account set up? You can call `create_account` or `create_customer` first, then use those IDs when defining your billing parameters.

Ingest Usage Events

When something happens in the system, you need to log it. The tool `ingest_event` takes a specific event object—it requires schema name, timestamp, account ID, and attributes. For bulk data dumps, just run `ingest_batch_events`. It handles ingesting large groups of usage records at once.

Check Account Status

You need to know if a client can actually use the feature. The `check_entitlement` tool verifies access for a specific capability. Don't forget about money. You can check funds or update records with `get_wallet_balance`, and even manually grant credits using `grant_credit`.
