Summary

With SELFHOST=true, starting a new analysis from an existing investigation was accepted by the API but failed in the worker because it required hosted billing terms. Skip that reservation block only in self-host mode; hosted instances with SELFHOST unset or false retain the existing billing checks.

Validation

• bun run lint passed, including 26 policy tests.
• bun run check-types passed all 33 tasks.
• Insights unit suite: 692 passed, 6 live-provider tests skipped, 0 failed.
• The reply regression covers unset, false, and true modes. The self-host case fails on the previous implementation and passes with this fix; hosted cases still reject unconfigured billing before analysis work.

Tests used synthetic data and inert local service URLs. No live provider, production database, or deployment was used.

Scope and overlaps

Only the reply worker and its existing regression test change. #849, #850, and #851 also touch Insights, but their current file sets do not overlap this change. No dependency on those PRs.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge, with the self-host exemption narrowly scoped and hosted billing behavior retained.

Summary

This PR allows analysis replies to proceed on self-hosted instances without applying hosted billing requirements.

• Skips billing resolution and charge reservation for analysis replies when SELFHOST=true.
• Preserves existing billing enforcement when SELFHOST is unset or false.
• Adds regression coverage for all three environment configurations.
• Replaces the previously flagged conditional assertions with explicit table-driven expectations.
