**Priority:** Low

**Status:** Planned

## User Story
|
||
|
|
As a developer, I want to understand and monitor API rate limits so that I can build applications that respect limits and handle throttling gracefully.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Clear documentation of rate limits per endpoint
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Rate limit headers in API responses (X-RateLimit-*)
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Different limits for different API token tiers
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Dashboard showing current usage vs limits
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Alerts when approaching rate limits
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Retry-After header when rate limited
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Ability to request limit increase
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Technical Notes
|
||
|
|
- Implement rate limiting middleware (consider express-rate-limit)
|
||
|
|
- Store rate limit counters in Redis for distributed systems
|
||
|
|
- Different limits: login attempts, API calls, token operations
|
||
|
|
- Consider sliding window algorithm for smooth limits
|
||
|
|
- 429 Too Many Requests response with helpful error message
