rate_limits:
- name: Organization API request rate
  scope: per-organization
  scope_detail: >-
    Shared across every API key AND every OAuth access token in the organization — one noisy
    integration consumes the same bucket as every other client in the org.

  burst_rule: roughly 10x the sustained refill rate by default
  limit_published: false
  note: >-
    Rhombus documents the MECHANISM but not the NUMBER. It states a sustained refill rate in
    requests per second plus a burst capacity of roughly 10x that rate, and says "default rates
    apply to all organizations", but publishes no actual requests-per-second figure. limit is
    therefore recorded as null: a consumer cannot compute their budget from the docs and must
    contact support to learn or raise it.

  headers:
  - name: Retry-After
    description: >-
      Seconds to wait before retrying. Computed from the organization's refill rate; always at
      least 1 second.

  quota_headers_note: >-
    No X-RateLimit-Limit / X-RateLimit-Remaining / X-RateLimit-Reset and no RFC 9239-style
    RateLimit-* headers are returned. There is no pre-exhaustion signal at all — an agent cannot
    observe how much budget remains and can only react to a 429 after the fact. Retry-After is
    the entire runtime rate-limit contract.

websocket:
  note: >-
    The STOMP WebSocket surface is the documented alternative to polling for real-time state.
    Rhombus positions it explicitly as the way to avoid consuming request budget.
