The Engine verifies its license with Fused Registry at startup and refreshes plan limits through heartbeats. It keeps limits in memory and enforces them locally; ordinary requests do not call Registry.

What is limited

There is no separate outgoing-request rate allowance. Rate counts requests; bandwidth counts bytes. Current self-hosted plans do not charge per token or cap the number of threads created. Storage capacity depends on your deployment. Protocol request-size and concurrency safeguards still apply.

Registry operator configuration

Registry administrators add threadify inside each existing plan entry in registry.yaml. Preserve the other product’s fields in the same entry. The following example allocations use decimal MB (1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes). The dev request and profile values shown are examples; use your chosen policy.
Use your existing plan IDs. These are example allocations, not published pricing. Set all four fields: -1 means unlimited; zero or missing means denied. Restart Registry after changing its YAML. The Engine receives changes on its next successful heartbeat (normally 60 seconds). This YAML belongs to Registry, not your Engine installation.

Why can the dashboard return 429?

Dashboard API requests currently share the Engine’s request and bandwidth quotas with integrations. This includes /v1/contracts and /v1/billing/plan; a quota can therefore prevent the plan page itself from loading.
  • A brief burst can exceed input_requests_per_second.
  • A zero or omitted request limit can reject requests continuously.
  • Exhausted output bandwidth can prevent an otherwise valid response.
Check the license’s plan fields and reverse-proxy limits. /health does not check quota, and a generic 429 may not identify the exhausted allowance.

Registry outages

After a successful verification, a failed heartbeat does not stop the running Engine. It continues enforcing the last verified limits. Explicit suspension or revocation is different from a transient network failure. A new startup still needs to verify its license.
