## Weekend update — July 25, 2026

### New features

- **Fixed pricing for live runners** - Orchestrators can now advertise a `fixed` price for live runner apps, charging a single payment when a session or request is created instead of metering payment over time or processed pixels. Fixed pricing flows end-to-end through static and dynamic runner registration, discovery, remote signers, and orchestrator accounting, so gateways and clients see the price and pay once at session start. Existing time- and pixel-metered runners are unaffected. See the [AI pipelines guide](/v2/gateways/guides/node-pipelines/ai-pipelines) for how live runners fit into the node.

### Updates

- **Single-shot live runner sessions now enforce payments** - Requests to the single-shot proxy path now go through the standard `402 Payment Required` challenge and are subject to the same payment accounting as persistent sessions. Previously, single-shot requests were proxied without a payment check, which meant operators had to use persistent mode to enforce on-chain payment. Combined with fixed pricing, this makes single-shot mode a first-class option for stateless request/response and fast batch inference workloads. Fixed-payment sessions still only need to pay once at reservation. See the [AI pipelines guide](/v2/gateways/guides/node-pipelines/ai-pipelines) for background on live runner sessions.
