vastai-rate-limits
Diagnose and design bounded Vast.ai CLI and REST traffic around per-endpoint, per-identity rate limits and the absence of Retry-After headers. Use when implementing polling, batch automation, or 429 recovery. Trigger with: "handle Vast.ai 429", "reduce Vast.ai polling", "set Vast.ai retry policy".

# Bounded Vast.ai API Traffic
## Overview
Prefer the CLI's built-in 429 retry for ordinary commands and add one orchestration-level call budget around it. For direct REST clients, implement capped backoff because the API does not return standard rate-limit headers.
## Prerequisites
- Endpoint and HTTP-method inventory with expected call volume
- Single owner for retry count, polling interval, deadline, and concurrency
- Metrics for calls, 429s, latency, cached hits, and abandoned work
## Instructions
