How I Cut My Gemini API Bill from ¥52,000 to ¥8,400 a Month — Caching, Model Routing, and the Batch API

A working record of cutting my Gemini API bill from ¥52,000 to ¥8,400 a month. Covers implicit vs. explicit caching, Flash/Pro routing rules, migrating to the Batch API, and a usage_metadata logging setup — with the production code I actually run.
