+  Scripts (for example a quota-aware model router) read it instead of re-implementing devdash.
 - Custom integrations: any number of `[[integrations]]` sections, each a command whose
   output devdash shows at `top`, `after-usage`, `after-my-prs`, or `bottom`. Each runs on
   its own thread and schedule, with a timeout that kills its whole process group, and a
