fix(server): preserve known Claude usage-limit resets

[ashx-j]

Claude could lose a known usage-limit reset when a repeated rejected event omitted resetsAt, or when a later background wake received only an assistant rate_limit error and a 429 result. The latest failure then hid recovery controls and prevented automatic recovery despite an earlier run retaining the reset.

Keep rejected windows per native Claude conversation for the lifetime of the adapter session. Sparse events preserve a named window's known future reset. Recovery and overage events clear that window even between turns. Expired or invalid resets, unidentified prior windows, and separate exhausted windows with unknown resets prevent scheduling. Queued wake replay reads the current cache without reapplying old limit events, so it cannot overwrite newer information from an intervening user turn. Failure classification still uses the current turn's evidence, and automatic recovery remains controlled by the user's setting.

Addresses Vantrongs's report of consecutive subagent wake failures. Refs #15665. Replaces #15694.

validation after updating to current main on october 11:

• all 253 claude adapter tests pass, including consecutive-wake failures, sparse reset updates, cache invalidation, and replay of stale limit events.
• the merge preserves main's sdk message lock and applies the replay flag inside that lock.
• scoped typecheck of the adapter and tests passes. targeted lint retains only the existing unused layer warning; formatting and whitespace checks pass.
• no live provider session was launched.

Initial implementation by GPT-6.1-Sol through the Codex harness. Review follow-up by GPT-6-Astra through the Codex harness.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 3ef6df1

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a localized Claude adapter bug fix that preserves usage-limit reset information across sparse events, background wakes, and retries. Production logic changes are confined to existing failure and recovery handling, with broad regression coverage and no schema, default, deployment, or sensitive-area changes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Claude adapter now stores rate-limit reset timestamps by native thread and limit type. Live rate-limit events update this state, while replayed wake events do not. The adapter uses valid cached timestamps when selecting resetAt for usage-limit failures. Tests cover event handling, wake replay, cross-turn behavior, and subagent wake failures.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 3ef6d

Known reset times remain available across turns without the inspected replay path mixing conversations. No actionable issue remains before merge.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 9d365

Known reset times remain tied to their conversation, and automatic recovery still requires opt-in and current-run checks. No introduced security regression was established, but concurrent lifecycle behavior is not fully verified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The changed scheduling influence is scoped to a native conversation within one opened provider session. The downstream recovery path additionally binds continuation to the current run, recovery request, and provider instance. Cross-conversation reset reuse is rejected by the added test case.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — SDK-supplied timestamps influence recovery eligibility, but do not themselves authorize continuation. Frames are checked against the current query. Recovery defaults to no automatic resume and requires matching run, request, reset, and provider identity, an elapsed reset, eligible thread state, and no pending runtime request.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — A retained invalid, expired, or unsupported window prevents cache-derived reset selection, even when another window has a future reset. This can leave recovery dependent on manual retry, but preserves conservative scheduling rather than treating incomplete limit evidence as permission to resume.

This doesn't cover the path from the follow-up in #15665, and I hit that path on an unmodified official nightly: 0.0.46-nightly.20261005.2676 (7812230), Claude Code 2.1.289. main at 8f75697 still has it.

A Claude thread had several subagents running when the 5-hour limit hit. Each subagent's failure notification woke the root conversation, and each wake turn failed with a 429, so the thread got six failed runs in four minutes. All six are usage_limit, but only three kept the reset time:

Failed run	rate_limit_event just before the wake turn	failure.resetAt
1 (05:29:23Z)	yes: five_hour, rejected, resetsAt 1791265200	05:40:00.000Z
2–4 (05:29:24–05:29:38Z)	none	null
5 (05:31:32Z)	yes, same window	05:40:00.000Z
6 (05:33:51Z)	yes, same window	05:40:00.000Z

Runs 2–4 got only the root assistant frame with error: "rate_limit" and the 429 result. While one of them was the latest run, the composer said "Reset time unavailable; retry manually" with no actions. After run 5 it said "Resets … 10:40:00 AM" with Resume at reset and Snooze until reset.

The reset times are kept in context.rateLimitResetTimes, and context is the per-turn ActiveClaudeTurnContext, created with an empty map for every turn (ClaudeAdapterV2.ts L7269). A wake turn that gets no new rate_limit_event therefore finalizes with resetAt: null (L6477), although the adapter recorded the same window's reset seconds earlier. This PR keeps a previous timestamp only within one turn's map, so runs 2–4 would still end with null. When such a run is the thread's last, UsageLimitRecoveryWorker also skips the thread, so auto-resume doesn't fire either.

Keeping the rejected windows per native conversation until an allowed event clears them would cover both cases. The closed #15110 took that approach.
