| -## 9. Open for Paul |
| +## 9. Paul's rulings on the builder check (2026-10-24) |
| Astra's builder check (`CODEX-FINDINGS-EDGE-RATE-LIMIT-builder-check.md`) |
| raised four questions and two corrections. The corrections and questions 1, |
| -2 and 4 are settled above as my calls. Two remain for Paul: |
| - |
| -1. **Can a plan push the backstop below the platform default?** (builder |
| - check 3.) If a Free plan's ceiling were lower than the default `rate` or |
| - `burst`, a quiet instance on that plan would refuse a busy shared |
| - address, which breaks decision 4. Recommendation: no. A catalog ceiling |
| - may never be below the platform default (the catalog loader refuses |
| - one), so a plan can only limit how far an owner raises the numbers. |
| -2. **An app-wide default that instances inherit?** Tito runs one instance |
| - per customer. With per-instance settings only, a change of policy is one |
| - call per instance. Recommendation: not in v1; the API makes the loop |
| - cheap, and the layer can be added later as app default → instance |
| - override without changing anything here. |
| +2 and 4 are settled above as my calls. Paul ruled on the other two ("Yes" to |
| +both recommendations): |
| + |
| +1. **A plan can never push the backstop below the platform default.** A |
| + catalog ceiling for `rate` or `burst` below the platform default is |
| + refused when the catalog loads, so a plan only limits how far an owner |
| + raises the numbers. This keeps decision 4 true on every plan. |
| +2. **No app-wide default in v1.** Settings are per instance only. An app |
| + default that instances inherit can be added later as a layer between the |
| + platform default and the instance's own values, without changing anything |
| + in this design. |
