Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

Implemented Redis-based rate limiting with atomic Lua script operations, achieving 10x performance improvement over the DB-only approach. The implementation includes graceful fallback to database when Redis is unavailable, ensuring no disruption for self-hosters.

Key improvements:

• Redis rate limiting uses atomic INCR + EXPIRE in a single Lua script to prevent race conditions
• Database fallback maintains existing functionality for environments without Redis
• Rate limiter module relocated from services/queue to lib/core/rate-limiter for better organization
• Comprehensive test coverage for both Redis and DB paths, including failure scenarios
• Manual executions continue to bypass rate limiting as before

Architecture:

• Fixed-window rate limiting algorithm with per-minute windows
• Separate counters for sync/async API executions and API endpoint requests
• Organization-level rate limit pooling for team/enterprise subscriptions
• Automatic fallback on Redis errors with warning logs

Confidence Score: 4/5

• Safe to merge with minor considerations about Redis connection handling in production
• The implementation properly addresses previous race condition issues with atomic Lua operations, includes comprehensive fallback logic, and has good test coverage. Score is 4 (not 5) due to lack of Redis integration tests and potential edge cases around Redis connection lifecycle in serverless environments
• apps/sim/lib/core/rate-limiter/rate-limiter.ts - verify Redis connection behavior under load
