Rate limits

Per-key request and concurrency caps.

A key can have:

  • Requests per minute, counted over a sliding window.
  • Concurrency, the number of calls running at the same time.

Going over returns 429 rate_limited with a Retry-After header in seconds. Upstream rate limits also come back as 429 with their own Retry-After, so retry after that many seconds either way.

Aliases with more than one model retry the next model on an upstream 429 or 5xx, as long as nothing was streamed yet.
