Description

If using an API like Routescan (eg `https://api.routescan.io/v2/network/mainnet/evm/43114/etherscan/api`), usage without an API key is actually allowed under a certain limit, since you only get an API key if you go for the paid plan.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the VS Code extension handles a custom API URL and decides whether an API key is required. Check the behavior for the Routescan example in the issue, then verify that a custom API can be used without a key within its stated limit while existing keyed usage remains supported.
