It seems this is the only mention of cost?

> Qwen3.8-Max comes with the official support for reasoning_effort, which can be used to adjust reasoning depth and control cost:

> xhigh (default): for complex tasks demanding thorough analysis

> medium: balancing accuracy and speed

> low: efficient reasoning optimizing for speed and cost
