Stop foreground PR polling from burning the whole GitHub quota - #1119
Merged
Conversation
During the 2026-08-17 GitHub outage this machine spent 5,001 core API
requests in one hour and hit the 5,000/hour primary limit, which blocked a
merge the user was trying to land. One open PR detail pane did it.
The pane polls readiness signals every 5s while the Checks tab is open and
something is still running; a tick costs ~7-10 REST requests (a pull, an
Actions runs page, up to 12 job reads, a combined status, a check-runs page).
That is the whole quota in an hour, and three defects removed every limit:
- `getChecksByCoords` swallowed both failed fetches into `[]`, which is
byte-identical to "CI has not started yet" — exactly the state the loop's
stop condition treats as "keep polling fast".
- The only brake was `msg.includes("rate limit")` on the rejection message.
Every response during the outage was a 5xx, matching neither substring, so
nothing armed while failed requests kept spending quota. Selecting another
PR reset what little backoff there was.
- The 500-request reserve was enforced in exactly one place, the background
poller. Every renderer read reached `apiRequest` with no gate at all.
Fixes, under the constraint that ADE degrades its request *rate* and never
its functionality — nothing here blanks a pane or stops polling:
- `getChecks` rejects when neither source could be read, and returns what it
got when only one failed. A rejection also stops a fabricated `[]` from
overwriting a good cached snapshot.
- New shared `githubPollGovernor`: any rejection arms an exponential
stand-down (30s -> 5min, matching the background poller's ceiling), one
success clears it, and it survives PR selection because a GitHub outage is
account-wide. It lengthens the timer's period rather than skipping ticks.
- New zero-network `ade.github.getRequestBudget` carries the typed
`GitHubAuthFailure` kind (reusing `service_unavailable` from #1110) and the
500-request reserve to the renderer, since IPC flattens errors to messages.
Implemented in both GitHub service owners, because the runtime-bound build
reaches GitHub through the headless one.
- Failed detail reads fall back to the cached snapshot for every failure, not
just rate limits. User-initiated Refresh stays exempt from the stand-down.
- `refresh()`'s background sweep now reports a sweep where GitHub answered for
no row, so the poller's own backoff finally engages.

…budget free Dual-review findings, all verified against the code before applying. Correctness: - The quota reserve and the failure ladder shared one field, so any success wiped both. User actions are ungated on purpose, so one PR open or Refresh click reset the reserve and handed every automatic loop its 5s cadence back with the quota still under 500 — leaking the reserve ~a minute at a time. They are now two independent stand-downs; only the ladder clears on success. - `getRequestBudget` was documented as zero-network but resolved a credential inventory first, which can shell out to `gh auth token`, decrypt the credential store (a PowerShell subprocess under DPAPI on Windows), or refresh an App user token over the network — on a 60s timer and again on every failed poll group. It now reads in-memory health only. - The budget was never registered as a sync remote command, so the hosted web client silently got an all-null budget and its 5s loop never saw the reserve. - The background sweep rethrew whenever every attempted row failed. Candidates are the stale rows, and a permanently-404ing PR never refreshes `last_synced_at`, so it becomes the only candidate on every later sweep — an unconditional rethrow would pin a healthy poller at max backoff forever. Only a failure meaning GitHub itself is unusable now surfaces. - An unclassified rejection no longer climbs the ladder. A runtime reconnect or a local "PR not found" cost one 30s rung instead of riding to the 5min ceiling. - The mergeability poll's skipped attempts broke its ~1min ceiling; it is now a wall-clock deadline. - A late budget response could resurrect a failure kind a success had cleared. - `REQUEST_BUDGET_FAILURE_SEVERITY` ranked `network` above `invalid_token` while the ladder gave the latter a longer base, so the budget reported the kind asking for the *shorter* stand-down. Both orderings now cross-reference. Maintainability: - Deleted `refreshRowsBestEffort`: `refreshPrIds` already owned that rule. - Deleted an unreachable second copy of the progressive-fetch machinery that encoded a different live-promotion policy. - Extracted the governor plumbing into `useGithubPollGovernor`. - Renamed the rate-limit-shaped names on the now-general brake. - Dropped `remaining`/`limit`/`resource` from the DTO: no consumer. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Second dual-review round on the applied fixes. Correctness: - The quota reserve was carried monotonically, so the field never changed once the quota reset. Readers treat a past instant as "not paused", but the hook only rebuilds a timer when a field CHANGES — so a pane that stood down at 5 minutes stayed there for the rest of the session on a healthy GitHub. Degrading without coming back is the one failure mode this exists to avoid. - `isGithubWideFailure` missed every transport-level failure. A very common outage shape is requests that hang rather than answer; those reject with a bare `fetch failed` / `ENOTFOUND` / timeout carrying no classified authFailure and matching none of GitHub's 5xx bodies, while each one has already been counted against the quota. - The budget reported a recorded failure kind with no recency bound. A failure is otherwise cleared only by a success on the same credential and resource, so a permanently-bad credential kept its kind for the life of the process and — read unscoped — became the process-wide answer, pushing every project's ladder onto the longer base on a healthy GitHub. - The cold-open fetch noted success/failure per piece, so one piece resolving last could clear a stand-down its three failing siblings had just armed. It now reports the group's outcome once, like the repeating loops. - The mergeability loop stood down by skipping ticks instead of lengthening its period, contradicting this branch's own rule; and it could resolve null WITHOUT making a request, which then recorded a governor success. It now derives its period from the governor and does not start when there is nothing to ask. Maintainability: - Cut ~90 lines of comment prose. The incident was retold in 16 files; the README and the governor module header are the two canonical homes and every other site is now one line. Mechanism comments that explain a real invariant are kept, and the one genuinely non-obvious conditional (re-deriving the ladder only when the kind CHANGED, which otherwise livelocks) finally has one. - Hoisted `isGithubWideFailure` to module scope and gave it a canonical `githubAuthFailureKindOf` accessor beside `classifyGitHubAuthFailure`. - Collapsed three identical interval+cleanup copies; reunited an orphaned docstring with its function; dropped a bare block; renamed a private helper that collided with a deleted field name; fixed two more inert test assertions.

…n outage Third dual-review round found the lane's central mechanism inert for its own headline scenario, plus six smaller issues. - A request that never reaches GitHub — a hang, a timeout, a DNS or TLS failure — threw straight out of the request helper recording nothing. That is exactly the outage shape this lane targets, and with no record the budget reported no failure kind, so the governor held a flat 30s rung instead of climbing to its 5-minute ceiling: ~960 requests/hour instead of ~96. Both owners now record it before rethrowing, with a null rate limit so it cannot clobber real quota numbers, and the kinds it produces carry no cooldown so it can never park a credential a user action needs. - The budget's failure-kind scan reused the reserve's quota-bucket filter, whose `limit >= 1000` clause dropped every failure that carries no `x-ratelimit-*` headers — which is all of the above. A failure kind is a statement about GitHub, not about a bucket; only `search` is excluded now. - A success now also drops an elapsed reserve, so recovery does not depend on the budget action still answering. - A failed detail piece no longer rewinds all four fields to the snapshot when its siblings already applied fresher data. - `refreshPrIds` rethrows the reason that says GitHub is down rather than whichever row failed first, so a mixed batch cannot hide an outage behind a permanent 404. - The mergeability poll re-reads its coords ref at tick time; the effect-setup narrowing did not survive to the closure. - Fixed a comment claiming the 60s detail tick lengthens its period (it skips ticks, which is right at that cadence) and a DTO doc missing the recency bound. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- The transport-failure record covered only the header phase. A response body that stalls mid-stream has its own 30s timeout and fails at `response.text()`, outside the new catch — the same outage shape, still recording nothing, so the budget reported no kind and the governor held its flat rung. Both owners now record the 304-retry fetch and the body read through one helper. - A later failure could shorten a cooldown that was still running. Kinds share a resource entry and differ in how long they park a credential, so a transient network blip (no cooldown by design) un-parked a credential ADE had already decided was broken, sending the next request straight back at it. - The mergeability poll fell through to `getStatus(pr.id)` for an unmapped PR whose coords momentarily nulled — that id is the synthetic `gh:` form, which is rejected locally, arming the shared GitHub stand-down for something GitHub never saw. An unmapped PR now asks by coords or asks nothing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ether Round 5 reported the lane converged on correctness and security. Closing the remaining findings: - Keeping the longer of two cooldowns kept the deadline but relabelled the reason, so a rejected token could sit parked for five minutes while reporting itself as a network problem — the misattribution that hides the reconnect the user actually needs. The deadline and the reason now travel together. - A comment claimed the CLI transport arms a body timeout. Only the desktop owner does; the CLI clears its timer once headers arrive, so the `.catch` there covers socket errors mid-body, not stalls. Corrected in the comment and in the doc, rather than adding a transport timeout this lane was not asked for. - Made the unmapped-PR branch of the mergeability poll exclusive, so "asks by coords or asks nothing" holds structurally rather than by reachability.

…tion
Test suite:
- Folded the new PrsContextGithubPollGovernor.test.tsx into PrsContext.test.tsx
(31 tests). The folder was over its per-folder budget; the two files that
remain each have a structural reason — PrsContextWarmCache needs module-load
isolation (MODE=production before a dynamic import) and githubPollGovernor is
a pure node-shaped state machine colocated with its module.
TUI parity — a real defect, one layer below the one this branch fixes:
- `/pr` dispatch catches a rejected read into `{ error }`, but the right-pane
formatters treated that shape as "no rows" and printed "No PR checks." for a
GitHub outage. That is exactly the failure-reads-as-empty conflation
`prService.getChecks` stopped making when it started rejecting instead of
returning `[]`, reproduced at the render step — and "no checks ran" invites a
merge. `formatPrChecks`, `formatPrComments`, and `formatPrReview` now name the
failed sources, and a source that failed reports no count rather than "0
reviews". Partial success still renders whatever answered.
Docs (four inaccuracies in prose written across the review rounds):
- The refresh() sweep needs BOTH conditions (every candidate failed AND the
reason is GitHub-wide), not just the second.
- "lengthens the period rather than skipping ticks" is true of the detail pane's
loops but not the provider's 60s poll, which deliberately skips.
- The ladder base is 60s only for confirmed-broken kinds; network/unknown climb
from 30s and rate_limited goes straight to the ceiling. Re-derivation happens
only when the kind changed — the livelock guard was undocumented.
- The source-file-map row still said the budget scans "a PR-read resource",
contradicting the unknown-bucket fix documented below it.
- Added the missing surfaces: the sync remote-command registry, ARCHITECTURE's
IPC channel list, and the transport-failure recording in both owners.
Mobile: no changes required. iOS already reads `unavailableParts` and retains
the last-good checks rather than adopting an empty array, with existing
coverage; it never invokes a github.* remote command and never polls GitHub.

Ship-phase revalidation on the rebased tree: - `PrsContext.test.tsx` referenced `installAde` in a type position after the test fold renamed it, which vitest strips but `typecheck-desktop` would have failed on. It also degraded the helper's options to `any`. - Scoped the folded suite's teardown to its own describe; at file scope it also ran after the pre-existing suite, duplicating that suite's own teardown while silently omitting its fake-timer reset. - `formatPrReview` claimed the whole read failed whenever no rows came back, even when a source had answered successfully with zero rows. Burying a real empty under "could not be read" is the mirror of the conflation this change exists to remove; it now needs all three sources to have failed. - Corrected two doc claims: the budget is read on a timer and after a failed read, not before every request; and a named reset instant is taken when it is further out than the ceiling, not instead of it.

…read Two review findings, both verified against the code and both the same bug class this lane exists to remove — a failure that renders as an absence. - The headless transport cleared its timer the moment headers arrived, so a response body that stalled mid-stream left the read pending forever: the transport failure this lane added was never recorded, and the poller tick awaiting it never completed. The body phase is now bounded on the same controller that owns the stream, matching the desktop owner — which matters because the daemon is the half that actually polls in a packaged build. - `pr_get_review_comments` flattened a failed `getReviewThreads` to `[]`, so "GitHub refused" rendered as "No actionable PR comments." to an agent reading it right before deciding a PR is clean. The failure is preserved and the TUI names the source instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 5 made a still-running cooldown keep its own reason rather than adopting a later, weaker one. But both write sites still restamped `failureAtMs` to now, so preserving the reason also refreshed its clock: a long-dead `invalid_token` would stay inside REQUEST_BUDGET_FAILURE_FRESHNESS_MS indefinitely as long as transient blips kept arriving on the same credential, and `githubRequestBudget` would keep reporting it process-wide — defeating the recency bound added for exactly that case. The preserved failure now carries its original timestamp, so the cooldown and the budget can disagree in the one way that is correct: the credential stays parked for the full window it earned, while its reason stops driving anyone's poll cadence once it is no longer recent.

X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0,X-RateLimit-Used: 5001). That blocked real work:a PR could not be merged until the quota reset.
One open PR detail pane did it.
How
PrDetailPanepolls readiness signals every 5 seconds while the Checks tab isopen and something is still running. A tick costs roughly 7–10 REST requests: a
pull, an Actions runs page, up to
PR_ACTION_RUNS_LIMIT(12) job reads, acombined status, a check-runs page. At 720 ticks an hour that is the whole
quota. It normally cannot run for an hour — CI settles in ~10 minutes and
checksTerminalstops it. Three defects removed every limit at once:getChecksByCoordsranboth sources under
bestEffort, so a 5xx became[]— byte-identical to"this commit has no checks yet". The loop's stop condition is "at least one
check exists and all of them settled", so it never fired.
msg.includes("rate limit") || msg.includes("API rate")on the rejectionmessage. Every response during the outage was a 5xx, which matches neither
substring. Selecting a different PR — the natural reaction to a stuck tab —
also reset what little backoff there was.
GITHUB_BACKGROUND_RATE_LIMIT_RESERVEwas enforced in exactly one place.Every renderer read went straight to
githubService.apiRequestwith no gate,which is how the quota reached zero despite a reserve existing.
The constraint
Nothing here blanks a pane, hides a PR, or stops polling. Every rung is a longer
cadence, and recovery is automatic. No new UI ships — a corroborated outage
already collapses the GitHub banner family into one incident notice (#1110), and
an uncorroborated
service_unavailablerenders its own honest copy; a per-panestaleness chip would duplicate both without telling the user anything actionable.
What changed
getChecks/getChecksByGithubreject when neither checks source couldbe read, and return partial data when only one failed. A rejection also stops
a fabricated
[]from overwriting a good cached snapshot, and makes the mobileaggregate file checks under
unavailablePartsinstead of a false empty.githubPollGovernor+useGithubPollGovernor— one brake for everyautomatic PR read. Any rejection arms a stand-down; there is no substring test
anywhere. It lengthens the timer's period rather than skipping ticks,
because a guard re-checked on every tick is one refactor away from being
missed. The failure ladder and the quota reserve are two independent
stand-downs: only the ladder clears on success, because a request does not
refill the quota. An unclassified failure costs one flat rung — a runtime
reconnect or a local
PR not foundmust not cost five minutes of liveness.ade.github.getRequestBudgetcarries the typedGitHubAuthFailurekind(reusing
service_unavailablefrom Tell GitHub outages apart from broken credentials #1110) and the reserve to the renderer,since both transports flatten an error to its message. Zero-network and
zero-subprocess by construction. Implemented in both GitHub service owners
and registered on the sync remote-command surface, so the runtime-bound build
and the hosted web client are actually gated rather than silently un-gated.
hang, a timeout, a DNS/TLS failure, a body that stalls mid-stream — used to
throw out of the request helper recording nothing, leaving the classified
ladder inert for the exact outage shape it targets.
prPollingServicefinally engages its backoff — but "every row failed" is deliberately not the
test, because a permanently-404ing PR is the only stale candidate on every
later sweep and would pin a healthy poller at max backoff forever.
/prcaught rejections into{ error }, but the right-pane formatters saw "no rows" and printed"No PR checks." for an outage — where it invites a merge.
Verification
/qualityran five dual-review rounds to convergence (6 High, 9 Medium, 26Low — all fixed, empty gate). Four of the six High findings were introduced by
earlier rounds of this fix and caught by later ones, including a reserve that
never expired in state so the pane never recovered its fast cadence.
Regression tests pin every accepted correctness finding. Full desktop shards and
the CLI suite pass; the only failures anywhere reproduce byte-for-byte on an
untouched checkout (stale local
node_modules).Windows: parity by construction — timers,
fetch,Map,Date.parse; nopaths, processes, IPC endpoints, or platform branches. The change removes a
Windows liability: the budget read no longer resolves a credential inventory, so
it can no longer spawn a DPAPI PowerShell decrypt on a 60-second timer.
