Fixes #675.

Summary

  • The pinned-account 503's recovery deadline has been max(rate-limit reset, cooldown end, circuit-breaker next-attempt) since fix(runtime): tell the pinned-503 truth — reset time, and no unpin advice for forced pins #671, but the sentence words every case as the recorded limit resets at <t>, with the internal token (circuit-open) beside it. During the OpenAI backend incident of 2026-08-20, a 30-second breaker deadline printed as a limit reset — a provider outage reading as a blown subscription quota (full incident correlation in The pinned-503 calls every recovery deadline a "limit", so provider outages read as blown quotas #675: first 503s at the incident's opening minute, zero 429s, rateLimitResetTimes null on both accounts, cooldownReason: "server-error", helpers reporting fetch failed).
  • Skip-reason precedence makes the misdirection provable: getManagedAccountRuntimeSkipReason tests rate-limited before circuit-open, so a reported circuit-open means the account was not rate limited at evaluation time.

What Changed

describePinnedBlocker in lib/request/rate-limit-decision.ts derives the human sentence's parenthetical and deadline noun from the blocker class — a continuation of #671's "tell the pinned-503 truth" work, applied to the noun that #671's breaker-deadline bound (5b76c68) outgrew:

blocker parenthetical deadline clause
rate-limited (rate-limited) the rate limit resets at <t>
circuit-open (paused after repeated upstream errors) the next attempt is allowed at <t>
cooling-down:server-error (cooling down after upstream server errors) the next attempt is allowed at <t>
cooling-down:network-error (cooling down after network errors) the next attempt is allowed at <t>
cooling-down:auth-failure (cooling down after authentication failures) the cooldown ends at <t>
cooling-down:rate-limit / bare cooling-down as named the cooldown ends at <t>
anything else raw token verbatim the account is expected to be available again at <t>

The default arm is deliberate: permanent blockers (disabled, policy-blocked, …) never reach the deadline clause because the call site already suppresses their reset time, and internal selection verdicts such as the retry loop's already-attempted stay legible verbatim rather than gaining an invented translation.

Nothing else moves. The machine-readable reason keeps the raw skip token, code/pinnedAccountIndex/pin_source/reset_at/retry_after_ms/account_skip_reasons are untouched, the status stays 503, normalizeExhaustionStatus keeps 429 for genuine rate-limit exhaustion, and the null-reason desync path keeps its lastError breadcrumb and now reads neutrally ("the account is expected to be available again at …").

Verified mechanically: a 24-case probe matrix (every live skip token, permanent blockers, the null-reason and null-index desync paths, past/zero/out-of-range resets, multi-account skip maps) diffed pre- vs post-change — every field except message byte-identical.

Validation

  • npm run typecheck, npm run lint
  • npm test -- test/documentation.test.ts — 32/32; no doc outside frozen docs/releases/ quotes the old sentence
  • Mutation check: reverting only lib/request/rate-limit-decision.ts under the new tests produces 11 failures across all three behavioral suites — a regression to the old wording cannot pass

New coverage in test/rate-limit-decision.test.ts: one case per blocker class asserting the parenthetical, the deadline noun, the untouched JSON fields, and the absence of limit resets/circuit-open from the message; a quota-phrasing keeper for genuine rate-limited; and an unknown-token passthrough case for already-attempted.

Greptile Summary

this pr improves pinned-account 503 wording by separating rate-limit, cooldown, and circuit-breaker descriptions, but cooldown-plus-circuit overlap can still attribute the deadline to the wrong blocker.

  • adds blocker-specific parentheticals and deadline phrases
  • derives rate-limit and full recovery bounds in one account-state pass
  • threads the current runtime blocker into pinned-unavailable responses

Confidence Score: 4/5

the pr is not yet safe to merge because overlapping cooldown and circuit state can still publish a recovery deadline under the wrong blocker noun.

repeated transient failures can leave a short cooldown and longer open circuit active together; cooldown precedence selects the message class while the maximum recovery calculation supplies the circuit timestamp, producing an incorrect operator-facing deadline.

### Issue 1
lib/request/rate-limit-decision.ts:368-371
**cooldown deadline uses circuit timestamp**

When repeated transient failures leave a short cooldown and a longer open circuit active together, cooldown precedence selects the blocker description while `reset_at` comes from the circuit recovery bound. The 503 therefore says the cooldown ends at the circuit's later timestamp even though the cooldown ends earlier.

Context used:

…limit" (ndycode#675)

The recovery deadline in the pinned-account 503 is max(rate-limit reset,
cooldown end, circuit-breaker next-attempt) since ndycode#671, but the sentence
called every one of them "the recorded limit" — so during the 2026-08-20
provider outage a 30-second breaker deadline printed as a limit reset and a
backend incident read as a blown subscription quota, with the internal token
"(circuit-open)" beside it. Skip-reason precedence makes the misdirection
provable: rate-limited is tested before circuit-open, so a circuit-open
verdict means the account was not rate limited at all.

Derive the parenthetical and the deadline noun from the blocker class: a
genuine rate limit keeps quota phrasing, a breaker or error cooldown names
upstream errors as the cause and the timestamp as the next attempt, an auth
or legacy rate-limit cooldown says the cooldown ends, and unknown tokens such
as the retry loop's selection verdicts pass through verbatim with neutral
recovery wording. Only the human message changes: the machine-readable reason
keeps the raw token, the status stays 503, and permanent blockers keep their
suppressed deadline.

📝 Walkthrough

this is a minor, user-facing correctness fix. it prevents circuit-breaker and provider cooldown failures from appearing as subscription quota exhaustion. no security or data-loss risk is evident. regression tests exist in test/rate-limit-decision.test.ts, test/issue-474-pin-end-to-end.test.ts, and test/runtime-rotation-proxy.test.ts.

  • lib/request/rate-limit-decision.ts:... maps blocker classes to specific parentheticals and deadline wording.
  • lib/runtime/account-status.ts:... derives separate total and rate-limit recovery bounds.
  • lib/runtime-rotation-proxy.ts:... uses one timestamped evaluation to classify the blocker and build the response.
  • genuine rate-limit recovery retains quota wording and 429 behavior.
  • circuit breakers and provider failures use “next attempt” wording.
  • authentication and other cooldowns use “cooldown ends” wording.
  • mixed blockers use neutral availability wording when the rate-limit deadline does not match the overall recovery deadline.
  • machine-readable fields, raw reasons, status codes, and permanent-blocker handling remain unchanged.
  • tests cover blocker-specific messages, unknown-token passthrough, JSON contract stability, mixed deadlines, desynchronization paths, and proxy behavior.
  • reviewers should focus on the blocker-to-wording mapping and the separate rate-limit recovery bound.
  • no missing regression coverage is indicated.
  • no windows-specific or concurrency risk is indicated by this message-formatting and timestamp-evaluation change.

Walkthrough

the change adds blocker-specific wording for pinned-account unavailability. rate-limit, breaker, cooldown, authentication, and unknown reasons use distinct recovery messages. recovery bounds track rate-limit deadlines separately from longer cooldown and breaker deadlines. machine-readable reason and deadline fields remain unchanged.

…hen the rate limit supplies it

Review round 1 (Greptile P1): skip-reason precedence reports rate-limited
whenever a live limit exists, but the advertised deadline is the max of every
gating record — a breaker tripped seconds before a limit expires ends later,
and the quota phrasing would attribute that breaker timestamp to the rate
limit. The call site now measures the rate-limit records' own bound
(getRateLimitRecoveryTimeForFamily, the two selection keys without the
cooldown) and the quota phrasing is used only when that bound is the recovery
deadline; otherwise the sentence falls back to the neutral availability
wording, which is true regardless of which record holds the account. A
context without the measurement keeps trusting the skip reason, so the JSON
contract and every other caller are unchanged.

…he pinned 503

Review round 2: an end-to-end case where a live rate limit and a later
server-error cooldown both gate the pinned account — reset_at advertises the
cooldown's later deadline while the sentence keeps the (rate-limited)
parenthetical and the neutral availability wording instead of calling that
timestamp a rate-limit reset. The record is keyed by the requested model's
own family; a "codex"-keyed record would not gate a gpt-5-codex request.

@coderabbitai The outside-diff ask is done in 09d586d: a proxy-level regression test ("does not word a later cooldown deadline as the rate-limit reset") drives a pinned account carrying both a live rate limit and a later server-error cooldown through the real proxy, and asserts reset_at/retry_after_ms advertise the later recovery deadline while the message keeps the (rate-limited) parenthetical with the neutral availability wording — never calling that timestamp a rate-limit reset.

One implementation note from writing it: the rate-limit record must be keyed by the requested model's own family (gpt-5-codex, not codex), or it does not gate the request at all and selection reports the cooldown instead — the first draft of the test proved that the hard way.

getRateLimitRecoveryTimeForFamily was a third copy of a walk that already
existed twice in this module: getAccountRecoveryTimeForFamily above it and
getRateLimitResetTimeForModel below, the latter documented with the identical
contract ("the latest active bound among exactly the two keys selection
consults"). Its only delta was accepting a nullable model.

Three byte-identical `consider` closures and three copies of the
getQuotaKey(family) / getQuotaKey(family, model) pair meant any change to the
key set selection consults -- the drift that produced the prefix-vs-exact key
bugs in ndycode#670/ndycode#671 -- had to land in three places, and missing the newest one
would silently mis-word the pinned 503 rather than fail a test.

Collapse them onto getAccountRecoveryBoundsForFamily, which returns both
bounds from one pass over rateLimitResetTimes against one `now`. The two
existing helpers stay as named views over it, so no caller changes. Callers
that need both bounds can now take them from a single call, which is what the
pinned-503 body does next: measuring them separately let a record expire
between the two walks and reported a rate-limited pin as bounded by something
else.

…e loop's verdict

The blocker-aware wording was fed accountSkipReasons -- the SELECTION verdict
-- so it missed the dominant path of ndycode#675. When the pinned account takes a
503/429 during the request, the retry loop re-enters selection, sees the pin in
attemptedIndexes and records "already-attempted" over whatever class actually
blocks it. describePinnedBlocker then fell to its default arm and printed
"Pinned account 1 is currently unavailable (already-attempted); the account is
expected to be available again at ...": an internal token and a class-less
deadline, the exact complaint the issue was filed about. The block already
re-read the pin's live runtime state 40 lines above, but used it only for the
permanent-blocker test.

Thread that live verdict through as `currentSkipReason` and word the sentence
from it whenever the recorded verdict does not itself name a blocker class. A
recorded verdict that does name one still wins, because the selection-only
classes ("missing", "policy-blocked") have no runtime-state equivalent. The
machine-readable `reason` is untouched and still reports what selection
decided. The end-to-end 429 test asserted the old sentence, so it was locking
the bug in; it now reads "(rate-limited); the rate limit resets at ...".

Also on this path:

- Replace the `rateLimitResetAtMs` deadline field with an explicit
  `recoveryBound: "rate-limit" | "other" | "unknown"`. The old shape branched
  on key PRESENCE (`"rateLimitResetAtMs" in context`), so a caller that spread
  the key with an `undefined` value got the opposite wording from one that
  omitted it -- a contract TypeScript could not express and no compiler could
  check. A regression test now pins both shapes to the same output.

- Table-drive describePinnedBlocker. Eight switch arms produced four distinct
  deadline strings from nine copies of the same closure, and the cooldown arms
  were hand-written literals with no compile-time link to CooldownReason, so a
  fifth reason would fall through and leak `cooling-down:<reason>` raw into the
  sentence -- reintroducing the very leak this PR removes. The cooldown table
  is now `satisfies Record<CooldownReason, BlockerDescription>`, making that
  omission a build error.

- Unify the cooldown deadline noun. server-error and network-error said "the
  next attempt is allowed at" while auth-failure, rate-limit and bare
  cooling-down said "the cooldown ends at", though all five are bounded by the
  same coolingDownUntil field -- an operator comparing two 503s from one
  mechanism saw two different nouns.

- Read the clock once. Building one body called state.now() four times and
  walked rateLimitResetTimes twice, so a record expiring between the two walks
  made a genuinely rate-limited pin print the neutral sentence.

P1 cooldown deadline uses circuit timestamp

When repeated transient failures leave a short cooldown and a longer open circuit active together, cooldown precedence selects the blocker description while reset_at comes from the circuit recovery bound. The 503 therefore says the cooldown ends at the circuit's later timestamp even though the cooldown ends earlier.
