Rate Limits

Agentic's durable rate-limiting is built on top of Cloudflare's global infrastructure. Customize the default rate-limits, change them based on a customer's pricing plan, or create custom tool-specific overrides.

Rate Limit

Either a positive integer expressed in seconds or a valid positive ms string (eg, 10s, 1m, 8h, 2d, 1w, 1y, etc).

The default rate-limiting mode is approximate, which means that requests are allowed to proceed immediately, with the limit being enforced asynchronously in the background. This is faster than strict mode, but it is less consistent if precise adherence to rate-limits is required.

With strict mode, customer requests are blocked until the current limit has been confirmed. The downside with this approach is that it introduces more latency to every request by default. The advantage is that it is more precise and consistent.

Example Rate Limits

The default platform rate limit for requests is a limit of 1000 requests per minute per customer.

{
  enabled: true,
  interval: '1m',
  limit: 1000
}

This example rate limit restricts customers to 100 requests per day. It uses strict mode which adds a little extra latency but guarantees that customers will never exceed the limit.

{
  enabled: true,
  interval: '1d',
  limit: 100,
  mode: 'strict'
}

This is an example of a disabled rate limit.

{
  enabled: false
}
