### What happens when a member's budget runs out mid-month? ### What happens when a member's budget runs out mid-month?
Currently LiteLLM enforces the $15 budget cap — requests stop when it's exhausted. Members have a **flexible balance**, not a hardcoded $15/month. The balance starts at $15 but can be topped up by payments (via Open Collective or another system) through the portal's `/admin/set-balance` endpoint, which pushes the new cap to the member's LiteLLM team budget (chat + API draw from the same balance). LiteLLM enforces the cap — requests stop when it's exhausted.

Should there be a grace period? Should the co-op pool surplus to cover light users? (The *mechanism* is built — these are now governance decisions, not technical blockers.)
