feat(low-code): reconcile RateLimitedMultipleTokenAuthenticator quota against response headers - #1117

… against response headers The authenticator seeds each token's quota counters from `quota_status_url` and then decrements them locally, never reconciling against what the server reports. When the local view and the server disagree the component stops doing the one thing it exists for -- spreading load across tokens -- because rotation only triggers on its own bookkeeping reaching zero. Measured on source-github with two tokens both seeded at 5000 remaining, against an endpoint returning 403 with `X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0` and a reset 30 minutes out: the declarative path retried the same token three times and slept 2 x 1799.6s while the second, fully-quota'd token sat idle. The equivalent Python stream, which rotates from its backoff strategy, finished in seconds. `TokenQuota` gains four optional fields -- `remaining_header`, `reset_header`, `limit_header` and `exhaustion_status_codes` -- and `HttpClient` calls `update_from_response` on the authenticator after every attempt, mirroring what `LimiterMixin.send` already does for `api_budget`. Reactive rotation then falls out of the existing proactive path: the server says the pool is spent, the counter goes to zero, and the next request picks another token. No new coupling between error handlers and authenticators, and the underlying counter drift is fixed rather than worked around. Update rules, which differ from `HttpAPIBudget`'s straight assignment because these counters are per token and mutated concurrently: - Response reset later than the stored one: the window rolled over, so take the server's numbers wholesale. - Same window: `min(stored, header)`. Responses arrive out of order and a slow one carries a stale, higher count; handing those calls back would let concurrent requests overspend. - Response reset earlier than stored: ignore, it belongs to a previous window. - Status in `exhaustion_status_codes` with no remaining header: zero the pool. Updates are attributed to the token that signed the request rather than the currently active one, since the authenticator may rotate between a request going out and its response arriving. Cached responses are skipped -- a replay carries stale headers and consumed no quota. A failure inside the update is logged at debug and swallowed: quota bookkeeping must never turn a good response into a sync failure. All four fields are optional and default to unset, so pools configured only with paths behave exactly as before. Out of scope: secondary rate limits, which on GitHub do not move `X-RateLimit-Remaining` and arrive as 403/429 with `Retry-After`. Listing 403 in `exhaustion_status_codes` would park a healthy token on a plain permission error, so a dedicated cooldown field is the better follow-up. Note on `models/declarative_component_schema.py`: regenerating produces ~280 lines of unrelated churn because the committed file is already stale relative to the current generator (verified by regenerating from an unmodified main). Only the `TokenQuota` class is updated here, byte-identical to what the generator emits for it, so the diff stays attributable. The pre-existing drift is worth a separate cleanup. Testing: 16 new authenticator tests and 3 new `HttpClient` tests; 1601 tests pass across auth, parsers, requesters and streams. Two failures in `test_concurrent_declarative_source.py` reproduce identically on unmodified main (requests_cache SQLite locking) and are unrelated.

Applies the PR #1117 review, plus one defect the review surfaced indirectly. Not in the review, found while reproducing its F2: an exhaustion signal whose reset header was *older* than the stored reset was dropped entirely. The window comparison had three arms -- later, equal, earlier -- and the earlier arm discarded the whole update, `remaining: 0` included. A 429 carrying a reset a few seconds behind the seeded one therefore left the counter untouched and no rotation happened, which silently disabled the feature for exactly the case it exists to handle. Measured before the fix: six attempts on the same token, its counter ending at 4994 rather than 0. The rule is now two-armed -- a later reset rolls the window over and takes the server's numbers wholesale, anything else clamps with `min()` and never moves the window backwards. Clamping unconditionally means no reset value can mask an exhaustion signal, and dropping the third arm also resolves the review's F4 (a limit from an older window overwriting the reserve), since there is no longer a class of response that is accepted for one field and ignored for another. F1: a pool zeroed from a response stayed out of rotation until every other token was also spent, because rotation only skips spent tokens and the all-exhausted reseed is the only path that refills them. `_acquire_call` now restores a pool whose window has elapsed, and the all-exhausted test treats such a pool as available rather than spent, so the sync picks the token up instead of dropping into the exhaustion wait and a reseed round trip. The severity is lower than the review suggests: rotation is "use one token until spent, then move on" rather than round-robin, so a parked token costs no throughput while another has quota -- the cost is the needless wait when the last one runs out. A `stale_zero` flag keeps the existing guard intact: when the quota endpoint itself reports a pool spent with a reset already in the past, that is a contradictory answer and must not be turned into invented quota. F3: `is_response_aware` now includes `reset_header`, so a pool configured with it is no longer silently inert, and a response proving the window rolled over restores the pool to its limit even without a remaining header. F6: a failing update hook warns once before falling back to debug, so a persistently broken update is diagnosable rather than a silent reversion to single-token behaviour. Added a `ResponseAwareAuthenticator` Protocol so the contract is discoverable instead of implicit in a `getattr`. F7: the threaded test asserted `remaining <= 4000`, which passes even if every local decrement is lost. It now clamps once and then charges a known number of calls with no further updates, asserting the exact expected count. F8: dropped a test line guarding an `update_token` attribute that does not exist. F2 is confirmed and needs no code change: the request that receives the rate limit still pays its backoff, because the error handler computes that from the response before rotation can matter. Only the retry moves to another token. The PR description is corrected to say so, and an end-to-end test through HttpClient now pins the rotation-on-retry behaviour, which until now rested on an uncovered re-sign in `_send`. F5 (field naming) is answered in the PR description rather than changed: within a TokenQuota that already has `remaining_path`/`reset_path`/`limit_path`, the matching `*_header` names read better than HTTPAPIBudget's `ratelimit_*` prefix.

![github-code-quality[bot]](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/9919?s=60&v=4){kind=small}
Normalize `exhaustion_status_codes` in the authenticator instance cache key. The key stored the raw model value, which is `None` when the field is omitted, while the runtime TokenQuota normalizes it to `[]`. Two definitions differing only that way behaved identically but keyed differently, so their streams stopped sharing quota counters -- the exact failure this component exists to prevent. Check the auth-method prefix in `_token_from_request` before slicing it off, instead of relying on `_states` membership to reject a mangled value. The header may have been written by something other than this authenticator. Use `pass` rather than `...` for the `ResponseAwareAuthenticator` Protocol body, which static analysis flags as a statement with no effect. Both forms appear in the codebase (`connector.py:110` uses `...`, `cursor_types.py` uses `pass`); no functional change. CodeRabbit's remaining nitpick, on the threaded test asserting `remaining <= 4000`, was already addressed in 51db59d -- the test now clamps once and asserts an exact count afterwards. Testing: 1102 tests pass across auth, parsers and streams; ruff and mypy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Reverts the elapsed-window restore added while addressing F1 of the earlier review. CodeRabbit flagged that `_restore_if_window_elapsed` refilled `remaining` without advancing `reset_at`; the consequence is worse than that framing. `_acquire_call` runs for *every* pool, not just response-aware ones, so the restore applied to the path-only configuration every existing consumer uses. With a reset timestamp in the past the pool refilled itself on each drain, never reaching the all-exhausted branch and therefore never reseeding. Measured on a path-only pool whose quota status reports 3 calls with an already-elapsed reset: 12 calls served from a 3-call allowance, one single quota-status request, zero waits. That is unlimited invented quota against a limit the connector had stopped tracking -- a regression against pre-PR behaviour, introduced to save a five-second wait. The suggested remedy of retaining the window duration and advancing `reset_at` is not implementable from what the component observes: quota status and response headers both carry reset *timestamps*, never the window length, so the duration would have to be guessed. Guessing it low re-creates the same over-issuing. So the mechanism goes, and the original semantics return: when every token is spent the authenticator waits until the earliest reset (floored at MIN_EXHAUSTION_WAIT so a stale timestamp cannot busy-loop the quota endpoint) and reseeds from the server, which is the only party that actually knows what the new window holds. The same probe now shows 4 quota-status requests and three 5s waits across those 12 calls. This leaves the original F1 observation unfixed by design, and that is the right call: rotation is "use a token until it is spent, then move on" rather than round-robin, so a token sitting at zero costs no throughput while another has quota. The real cost was one 5s wait plus a reseed when the last token ran out. Trading that for invented quota was a bad deal. The `stale_zero` flag introduced to protect the existing stale-reset guard goes with it, since without the restore there is nothing to guard against, which also resolves the outside-diff comment about never clearing that flag. Added a test pinning the behaviour I got wrong: an elapsed window must reseed from the quota endpoint rather than refill locally. Also from the review: `_response_aware_authenticator` now forwards `**kwargs` to the authenticator rather than the quota builder, matching `_authenticator`, and the rollover test asserts the concrete refill value instead of comparing a field to itself. The third nitpick (a header-differs case in the instance-sharing test) is already covered by test_factory_does_not_share_instances_across_differing_header_config. Testing: 1101 tests pass across auth, parsers and streams; ruff and mypy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…limit
Closes the gap left open by the response-header work: a rate-limited request paid the
full backoff even when a second token sat completely unused. Probe at the moment of
the sleep, two tokens, the first rate-limited with a reset 30 minutes out:
SLEEP 1800.3s | token state: {'token_1': 0, 'token_2': 5000}
The wait guarded nothing. It happens because the backoff is computed by the error
handler from the rejected response's headers, which describe one credential; the
authenticator, which is the only component that knows a spare exists, has no say.
`HttpClient` now asks. When a resolution is RATE_LIMITED and the authenticator reports
`has_alternative_token(request)`, the computed wait is replaced with a token-rotation
backoff and the retry -- which re-signs the request -- goes out on the other token.
Same probe now sleeps 1.1s.
`has_alternative_token` is deliberately narrow. It answers True only when the token
that *sent* the request is spent for the matched quota pool, guaranteeing the next
acquire rotates, and some other token is not. If the sending token still has calls the
rejection was not about exhausting it -- a secondary limit is typically per-account and
would reject every token alike -- so the computed wait stands. Availability is answered
per quota pool, so exhausting graphql does not shortcut a rest wait.
Three properties worth stating, all covered by tests:
- Only RATE_LIMITED is shortened. A 500 retry has nothing to do with credentials and
keeps its backoff.
- The replacement backoff is non-zero, so an authenticator that misreports availability
degrades to a slow retry rather than a hot loop against a live rate limit.
- Authenticators without the hook are untouched, as is any authenticator that reports
no spare.
This is what the source-github Python streams already do in connector-specific code
(rotate, then return a 1s backoff instead of the computed one), so the declarative path
no longer regresses against the implementation it replaces -- which was the reason to
treat the CDK work as a prerequisite for migrating that connector's heavy streams.
Testing: 1110 tests pass across auth, parsers and streams; ruff and mypy clean.

…he authenticators `ResponseAwareAuthenticator` and `TokenRotatingAuthenticator` described what an authenticator can offer, but lived in `http_client.py` because that is what calls them. Anyone writing an authenticator would look under `requests_native_auth/`, which is where the base classes live and where `DeclarativeAuthenticator` inherits from, so that is where the contracts belong. Moved to `requests_native_auth/protocols.py` and exported from the package. This costs nothing in the import graph: `HttpClient` dispatches structurally through `getattr`, so it never referenced the protocol objects at runtime -- only a docstring mentioned them. `streams/http` still imports nothing from `declarative`, and the protocols' new home does not import `HttpClient`, so an authenticator that needs the client (as the declarative one does) cannot create a cycle. `RateLimitedMultipleTokenAuthenticator` now names the two protocols it implements, so the contract is reachable from either end.

…ests `ab_datetime_now` was only used by the two tests removed in 15d99fb. The repo's ruff config selects `I` and `F821` but not `F401`, so local lint stayed green and the code-quality bot caught it instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

…t arrived with `limit_header` was applied unconditionally, before the window comparison had a chance to reject a stale response. A delayed response from an older window could therefore overwrite the current limit, which feeds the proactive throttling reserve and the capacity a later reset-only response refills the pool to. This is the inconsistency I claimed had dissolved when the window rule went two-armed in 51db59d -- it had, for `remaining`, but `limit` was still being taken from responses whose reset value was being discarded. Now all three fields follow one rule: a response only moves the window forward, never backward, and its numbers are accepted only for the window it belongs to. The assignment stays ahead of the rollover branch, which reads `state.limit` when a fresh window arrives without a remaining header. Testing: 926 tests pass across auth and streams. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round-2 review finding, and a consequence of the previous commit. Gating `limit` on the window it arrived with left `remaining` as the one field that still accepted values from any window, contradicting that commit's own claim that all three follow one rule. The unconditional clamp was introduced for a real reason -- a 429 whose reset header trails the value we hold must still zero the pool, or rotation silently stops working -- but it also accepts a *positive* count from a window that no longer exists. Since `min` only ever tightens, that pins a freshly refilled pool to a dead window's count until the next rollover an hour later. Measured before the fix: a pool that had just rolled over to 5000 was clamped to 3 by one late response from the previous window. Reachable through exactly the in-flight-across-the-boundary race the rest of this component is written around, and with 25 concurrent workers on hourly windows a response straddling a rollover is close to certain once per window. The clamp now requires the response to belong to the window we hold, with two exceptions that preserve why it was unconditional: `remaining <= 0` is an exhaustion signal and is never dropped, and a reset within RESET_SKEW_TOLERANCE (60s) still counts as the current window, covering ordinary disagreement between the quota endpoint and response headers. `test_earlier_reset_in_response_never_moves_the_window_backwards` pinned the behaviour under discussion, so it is split: one test for a within-tolerance reset still clamping, one for a rolled-over window being ignored. Verified the two properties that motivated the unconditional clamp still hold -- exhaustion with an earlier reset still zeroes the pool, and the end-to-end rotation still skips the wait. Also adds the isinstance coverage the review asked for, so the `runtime_checkable` protocols are exercised rather than merely declared. Testing: 928 tests pass across auth and streams; ruff, format and mypy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…mited Round-3 review finding, and the last residual of the F9 fix. That fix kept one unconditional path -- `remaining <= 0` was honoured whatever window it came from -- so a rate limit whose reset header trails the value we hold could not silently stop rotation. The property is right but the exception was wider than the case: a zero on a *successful* response is just the last call of a window, and honouring it from a window that has already rolled over parks a pool that has already refilled. Measured before the fix: a 200 carrying `X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0` and a dead window's reset took a refilled pool from 5000 to 0 -- the same bug F9 fixed, leaking through the escape hatch. The exception now also requires the response's status to be one the pool counts as rate-limited, which is the configured expression of "this was a rejection, not a successful call". After the fix the same stale zero from a 200 leaves the pool at 5000, while from a 429 it still zeroes and rotates. Consequence worth knowing: a pool that sets `remaining_header` but leaves `exhaustion_status_codes` empty no longer gets the trailing-reset guarantee, since nothing tells it which statuses mean rate-limited. Listing the API's unambiguous rate-limit status is what buys that, which is what the field is for. Testing: 929 tests pass across auth and streams; the three properties this arm has to balance are each pinned by a test -- exhaustion with a trailing reset still lands, a positive count from a dead window is ignored, and a stale zero from a 200 is ignored while the same zero from a 429 is not. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round-4 review finding. The description covered only the original effect -- setting the pool to zero when a rate-limited response carries no remaining count. Since af5e820 the field also decides which responses may report a zero for a window that has already elapsed, which is what keeps a rate limit whose reset header trails from silently stopping rotation, and it is the reason leaving the list empty gives up that guarantee. The schema is the only place a manifest author encounters this, so it is the one place the two effects have to be stated. Model description hand-edited to match the YAML verbatim, as with the rest of this PR's generated-file changes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

…f getattr The two protocols were referenced only from docstrings, so the contract they declared and the contract actually enforced were separate things: renaming a method on a protocol changed nothing, because the string inside `getattr` was the real interface. Making the dispatch sites check the protocols collapses those into one object. `protocols` imports nothing from the CDK -- only `typing` and `requests` -- so importing it here cannot cycle whatever else lands in `requests_native_auth`, including an authenticator that needs `HttpClient` the way the declarative one does. That is why the import targets the leaf module rather than the package. Behaviour is unchanged. `runtime_checkable` protocols check method presence via attribute lookup, so all three cases resolve exactly as the `getattr` form did: a plain authenticator is skipped, one whose class defines the method is dispatched, and so is one with the method assigned on the instance. Verified, along with the end-to-end rate-limit rotation and the stale-zero handling. Worth stating the limit: this checks presence, not signature, so an implementation with the wrong arity still passes -- the same guarantee `getattr` gave, just expressed once. Testing: 929 tests pass across auth and streams; ruff, format and mypy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…matched The module described dispatch as "looks for the method", which was written when the dispatch sites used `getattr`. Since 7243bfd they check the protocol with `isinstance`, and from Python 3.12 that resolves protocol members through `inspect.getattr_static`, which does not run `__getattr__`. A delegating authenticator that only exposes the method dynamically therefore satisfies the protocol on 3.10/3.11 and is silently skipped on 3.12/3.13 -- measured across all four interpreters in the CI matrix. Connector authors read this module before writing an authenticator, so the constraint belongs here, next to the note that presence rather than signature is what gets checked. Also corrects the blanket "behaviour is unchanged" in 7243bfd: the three cases that commit enumerates do resolve identically, the general claim does not. Docstring only; no behaviour change. 216 tests pass across auth and http_client; ruff, format and mypy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

7.26.0 ships airbytehq/airbyte-python-cdk#1117, which reconciles RateLimitedMultipleTokenAuthenticator's per-token quota counters against response headers so the declarative path rotates tokens reactively. Also bumps the manifest's declared CDK version, which was still 7.24.0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

CDK 7.26.0 (airbytehq/airbyte-python-cdk#1117) lets a TokenQuota pool declare the response headers that carry its quota, so HttpClient can feed every response back into RateLimitedMultipleTokenAuthenticator instead of the authenticator relying on a single seeding from /rate_limit. Both quota pools now declare X-RateLimit-Remaining / -Reset / -Limit. A primary rate limit therefore spends the rejected token's pool, and HttpClient retries on a spare token in 0.1s rather than sleeping until the reset. exhaustion_status_codes is deliberately left empty: GitHub also returns 403 for secondary limits and missing scopes, neither of which spends the primary quota, and zeroing a pool for those leaves a single-token config with nothing to rotate to (a unit test caught exactly that failure). This supersedes the connector-side workaround, so utils.rotate_authenticator_token and its call from GithubStreamABCBackoffStrategy are removed along with the private-attribute access into the authenticator. Manifest and Python streams now share one rotation implementation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
RateLimitedMultipleTokenAuthenticatorseeds each token's quota counters fromquota_status_urland then decrements them locally, never reconciling against what the server reports. Rotation only fires when its own bookkeeping reaches zero, so whenever the local view drifts from the server's the component stops spreading load across tokens.Measured on source-github (airbyte#81428) with two tokens both seeded at
remaining: 5000, against an endpoint returning403 {"message": "API rate limit exceeded…"}withX-RateLimit-Remaining: 0and a reset 30 minutes out:tokenA→tokenB→tokenADefaultErrorHandler+WaitUntilTimeFromHeadertokenA→tokenA→tokenAtokenA→tokenBThe last row is the point of the second half of this PR. Zeroing the pool fixes which token
the retry uses, but the wait itself is computed by the error handler from the rejected
response's headers — so the first hit still paid a full 30 minutes while a second token sat
completely unused:
HttpClientnow asks the authenticator before sleeping on aRATE_LIMITEDresolution, andsubstitutes a short rotation backoff when a spare credential can serve the retry. This is what
source-github's Python streams already do in connector-specific code, so the declarative path
no longer regresses against the implementation it replaces.
An hour of sync window burned with a fully-quota'd token idle. Drift comes from tokens shared with other clients, in-flight overcount under concurrency (source-github runs up to 25 workers), and long syncs where a single seeding is the only ground truth.
How
TokenQuotagains four optional fields —remaining_header,reset_header,limit_header,exhaustion_status_codes— andHttpClientcallsupdate_from_responseon the authenticator after each attempt, mirroring whatLimiterMixin.sendalready does forapi_budget(call_rate.py:725-731).Reactive rotation then falls out of the existing proactive path: server says the pool is spent → counter hits zero → next request rotates. No new coupling between error handlers and authenticators, and the counter drift is fixed at the root rather than worked around at the retry layer.
Update rules, which deliberately differ from
HttpAPIBudget's straight assignment because these counters are per token and mutated concurrently:min(stored, header)— out-of-order responses may only tighten the estimate, never hand back calls already spent0on a response whose status is inexhaustion_status_codes(an exhaustion signal is never dropped; a zero on a successful response is just the last call of a window). The window is never moved backwards.exhaustion_status_codes, no remaining headerThree details worth a reviewer's eye:
_active_token— the authenticator can rotate between a request going out and its response landing.requests_cachereplay carries stale rate-limit headers and consumed no quota; feeding it in would corrupt counters in both directions.Field naming
These sit inside a
TokenQuotathat already hasremaining_path/reset_path/limit_path,so the headers are named to match:
remaining_header/reset_header/limit_header. Theclosest analogue elsewhere is
HTTPAPIBudget, which usesratelimit_remaining_header,ratelimit_reset_headerandstatus_codes_for_ratelimit_hit. Both readings are defensible;local consistency won because the
ratelimit_prefix is redundant inside a quota pool. Flaggingit explicitly since declarative schema fields are effectively permanent once released — say the
word if you'd rather match the budget's names.
Skipping the wait when another credential is free
TokenRotatingAuthenticatoris a second optional protocol:has_alternative_token(request).HttpClientconsults it only for aRATE_LIMITEDresolution and only when a backoff wascomputed, replacing that backoff with
TOKEN_ROTATION_BACKOFF.The predicate is deliberately narrow — it answers True only when the token that sent the
request is spent for the matched pool, so the next acquire is guaranteed to rotate, and
another token is not spent. If the sending token still has calls, the rejection was not about
exhausting it (a secondary limit is usually per-account and would reject every token alike),
so the computed wait stands. Availability is per quota pool, so exhausting
graphqlnevershortcuts a
restwait.Three safety properties, each covered by a test:
RATE_LIMITEDis shortened; a500retry keeps its backoff.degrades to a slow retry rather than a hot loop against a live rate limit.
Backwards compatibility
All four fields are optional and unset by default, so pools configured only with paths behave exactly as today. No connector is required to change.
Out of scope
Secondary rate limits. On GitHub these don't move
X-RateLimit-Remainingand arrive as 403/429 withRetry-After; listing 403 inexhaustion_status_codeswould park a healthy token on a plain permission error. A dedicated cooldown field is the better follow-up.Note on the generated model file
Regenerating
models/declarative_component_schema.pyproduces ~280 lines of unrelated churn (e.g.OAuthScope→OptionalScope+Scope), because the committed file is already stale relative to the current generator — verified by regenerating from an unmodifiedmainand getting a 315/284-line diff with no schema change at all. Only theTokenQuotaclass is updated here, byte-identical to what the generator emits for it, so this diff stays reviewable. The pre-existing drift deserves its own cleanup PR.Testing
test_exhaustion_status_code_zeroes_the_pool_and_next_request_rotates), out-of-order responses, window rollover, token attribution under rotation, cached responses, malformed headers, GraphQL pool isolation, and a threaded consistency check.HttpClienttests: the hook fires once per attempt including retries, duck-typed authenticators without the method are untouched, and a raising hook doesn't break the request.auth,parsers,requestersandstreams.
