# overlane observe reconcile

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Compares the cost the metrics report with the usage the billing ledger meters, per agent, per project and in total. A line outside the tolerance names the key and the error in basis points.

## Usage

```sh
overlane observe reconcile
```

## Examples

```sh
overlane observe reconcile
overlane observe reconcile --json
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `read` (changes nothing).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: no. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema observe reconcile`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
