The lease, stall and probe-TTL guards only ran inside GatewaySettings.from_env,
so from_settings() and direct construction could produce settings that violate
the class's own invariants: the permit lease could expire mid-request (silently
exceeding the concurrency quota), a normal slow first token could be killed as a
stall, and a half-open probe could be taken over while still in flight.
Guards move into __post_init__ as _validate_* methods, matching every frozen
dataclass in types.py, so all six factories plus dataclasses.replace are covered
by one check. Adds a non-empty sources invariant that previously only from_env
enforced. Messages now name fields instead of env keys, since callers who build
settings by hand never set those keys.
httpx reads the macOS system proxy config (not just env vars) when
trust_env is on, and the proxy answers 403 for the LAN service at
10.77.0.20. The raw-httpx case in this file already passed
trust_env=False; the OcrClient cases relied on the default and failed on
any machine with a system proxy enabled.
Guards for the three cross-field invariants (source timeout vs lease TTL,
stall window vs max TTFT, probe TTL vs slowest timeout) only ran inside
from_env, so the from_settings path could build a GatewaySettings that
violates the class's own documented invariants. Design moves all of them
plus a non-empty sources check into __post_init__ as _validate_* methods,
matching the existing frozen dataclasses in types.py.
Covers two defects left by PR#1: probe_ttl_s was never moved, and an empty
sources tuple leaked a bare 'max() arg is an empty sequence'.
VT migration abandoned (v1.0 scope becomes two projects), Q1 resolved
to Gitea PyPI, Q6 resolved as judge exemption (unwired zero-consumer
eval scaffolding), migration docs annotated with implementation errata,
and the reference/ read-only rule clarified for the worktree workflow.
The fixture used to DROP the shared llm_calls table on every run, wiping
concurrent migration-batch telemetry (and its own count assertion was
polluted in return). Assertions now filter by a per-run call_id prefix
and teardown deletes only its own rows.
AIMD ceiling now respects per-source max_concurrency and the pacer is
assembled explicitly in the client; MIN_CALLS parses as strict int;
acceptance doc corrects source-5 attempt count to 549; design and
migration notes aligned with implemented 429/stall/suppression
semantics and AIMD constants documented.
Round 8 forensics caught the healthy source circuit-opened by five
random empty completions (~20% ambient failure rate makes a 5-streak
land every ~3000 attempts), blacking out the only good source for 60s.
When the window holds min_calls samples below the failure-rate
threshold, a streak is noise and no longer opens the gate; cold-start
and low-traffic semantics are unchanged and sudden death of a warm
source is still caught by the rate channel.
Round 6 hit account-level rate throttling the concurrency AIMD cannot
absorb: at 26 req/min the gateway still returned 16% 429s and each one
burned a third of the retry budget. Retry-After-guided 429s now back
off without consuming attempts (gRPC pushback semantics); the retry
loop gains a per-call ceiling using the same dual-condition stall
verdict as quota-wait (local window exceeded AND no global progress).
Round 5 left three residual failure classes; ladder exhaustion (3.2%
of structured calls with a single re-ask) and 429 leakage (5.8%, AIMD
oscillating above the sustainable point) are addressable: re-ask
default goes 1 to 2 (conservative vs instructor's 3) and the AIMD cut
factor drops to 0.5.
Round 4 showed tail placement routes the third attempt to junk sources
whenever the credible alternative is gate-skipped (tight-RPM source
admitted as credible, then skipped by the limiter, falling through to
the flapping watchdog source). Demoted sources now sit between credible
and non-credible candidates.
Round 3 showed unconditional yield-after-two-failures pushes the third
attempt onto known-bad sources in heterogeneous pools (83% vs 10%
expected success). OutcomeAwareSelector now exposes health(); a failed
source only yields when some untried candidate scores at least half its
health. Health-blind selectors keep the unconditional rule.
P6 round 2 showed routing convergence turns account-level 429s into
the binding constraint (62% throttle rate at full concurrency). Each
source now carries a local AIMD limit: multiplicative cut on 429,
additive growth on success. Over-limit picks queue via the existing
quota-wait poll instead of burning retry budget or tripping the
circuit-open verdict.
RetryMW keeps a per-call failure map (local, never instance state):
a source failing twice in one call yields to the next candidate.
Attempt outcomes feed OutcomeAwareSelector behind a swallow-and-warn
guard; ResultInvalid and provider-rejected paths record success with
count_attempt=False so the breaker window stays clean. Same accounting
applied in EmbeddingClient.
Score is success-rate EWMA over (1 + inflight) with a 0.05 exploration
floor so quarantined sources can prove recovery; EWMA climb doubles as
slow-start. New optional OutcomeAwareSelector port feeds attempt
outcomes.
Dual-channel opening: consecutive failures (CHS-compatible, no streak
bump) plus windowed failure rate (two 30s buckets, min_calls guard).
429s bypass both channels as backpressure, and a probe hitting 429
releases instead of holding the lease. Open duration doubles per
rate/probe reopen up to max_cooldown_s, decaying after stable CLOSED.
record_success gains count_attempt so bad-result successes stay out of
the window.
Threshold auto-raise now uses per-source concurrency only (the M2
global-concurrency formula neutered the breaker at scale). Four new
optional keys: MIN_CALLS, FAIL_RATE, WINDOW_S, MAX_COOLDOWN_S.
