Which rate limit should I pick for an API key?

Every key has its own limit, chosen when you create it:

Over the limit, requests answer 429 rate_limited with a Retry-After header (seconds to wait).

Things that don't use it up#

• An Agent API event stream counts once, when you open it, however long it stays open.
• Code Buckets chunk uploads and downloads don't count toward the per-minute limit.

Can I change it later?#

Not on an existing key. Create a new key with the limit you want, switch your app to it, then revoke the old one.
