I highly doubt that.

Keeping your cache warm is a good thing, caching saves compute and electricity.

Cached input is cheap for a reason, it is in everyone’s mutual interests to maximise cache hit rates.

If that was true then Anthropic would have built this functionality in themselves.

They did. On any long running query with large context, tell Claude “give me a status report every 4 minutes to keep the cache warm”. It’s entirely happy to oblige and usually says “good idea, that will keep costs down”
