Follow-on to blockrun#503 (live in production since 2026-09-04).

Six Grok SKUs on the gateway carried a resale spread over xAI's published rate — up to +140% on output — while the site claimed "provider list price on chat tokens, no markup". The prices were moved rather than the claim, so blockrun.ai now bills xAI list on every Grok SKU:

SKU was now
xai/grok-4.3 $1.50 / $4.00 $1.25 / $2.50
xai/grok-4.5 $2.50 / $9.00 $2.00 / $6.00
xai/grok-build-0.1 $1.50 / $3.00 $1.00 / $2.00

Verified against docs.x.ai/docs/models; the blockrun-sol agent independently re-checked all 24 numbers (both axes, both tiers) against OpenRouter's live endpoint list.

No price guard reaches this repo — brand/consumers.json lists 15 repos and the sweep that catches drift only covers the gateway's own sheets. These were found by grep, not by CI.

CHANGELOG entries are deliberately unchanged. A dated entry records what the price was on that day; rewriting it would misreport history. Only live claims and executable values are updated.

The gateway repriced six Grok SKUs to xAI's list price on 2026-09-04, removing
a resale spread of up to +140% on output. This repo quoted the old numbers.

  xai/grok-4.3         $1.50/$4.00 -> $1.25/$2.50
  xai/grok-4.5         $2.50/$9.00 -> $2.00/$6.00
  xai/grok-build-0.1   $1.50/$3.00 -> $1.00/$2.00

No price guard reaches this repo — the gateway's drift sweep covers its own
sheets only, and brand/consumers.json lists 15 repos it cannot see. Found by
grep.

CHANGELOG entries left alone on purpose: a dated entry records what the price
was that day.
