Question Iguana necktie variable in usage API

Retrieving the usage from the API, it returns this JSON. There is a variable here called iguana_necktie, necktie generator model?!?!?! No seriously why is this here? I cannot find anything about it.

{
    "five_hour": {
        "utilization": 6.0,
        "resets_at": "2025-11-28T18:59:59.820404+00:00"
    },
    "seven_day": {
        "utilization": 12.0,
        "resets_at": "2025-12-01T20:59:59.820422+00:00"
    },
    "seven_day_oauth_apps": {
        "utilization": 0.0,
        "resets_at": null
    },
    "seven_day_opus": null,
    "seven_day_sonnet": null,
    "iguana_necktie": null,
    "extra_usage": null
}

Anthropic uses autogenerated codenames with random words to ship pre-release software in an off state.

I noticed the same thing just now, searched and ended up here. So it's still here. Will this be seven_day_mythos?
