readQuota has never succeeded, so the pacer merged in #144 never runs — the reader looks for credentials in files the macOS client does not use

Plan: Fix readQuota so the pacer merged in #144 actually runs

Context

The pacer shipped in #144 is correct but inert: readQuota has never succeeded, so
paceDelay is never called. Three independent defects in the reader conspire:
the credential source does not exist on this platform, the API endpoint returns
404, and the response parser is pinned to two guessed schemas neither of which
matches reality. Until all three are fixed the --pace-five-hour 90 flag parses
but does nothing.

Normative check: CONSISTENT — the normative docs at docs/ root are silent
on pacing, quota, and rate limiting. No document speaks to this area.

Discovered facts (from this machine)

What	Current (broken)	Real
Credential source	credentials.json on disk	macOS Keychain, service Claude Code-credentials, JSON field claudeAiOauth.accessToken
API endpoint	GET /v1/organizations/usage (404)	GET /api/oauth/usage (200)
API base default	none — error if unconfigured	https://api.anthropic.com
Response schema	two guessed array formats	{"five_hour":{"utilization":17.0,"resets_at":"..."},"seven_day":{...}} — utilization is 0-100 percentage, resets_at is RFC3339

Changes

1. cli/quota.go — discoverOAuthToken() (lines 93–135): add Keychain fallback

After the file-based for-loop falls through (line 132), before the final error
return, insert:

// macOS Keychain fallback: Claude Code stores credentials there, not on disk.
if out, err := exec.Command("security", "find-generic-password",
    "-s", "Claude Code-credentials", "-w").Output(); err == nil {
    var kc struct {
        ClaudeAiOauth struct {
            AccessToken string `json:"accessToken"`
        } `json:"claudeAiOauth"`
    }
    if err := json.Unmarshal(out, &kc); err == nil && kc.ClaudeAiOauth.AccessToken != "" {
        return kc.ClaudeAiOauth.AccessToken, ""
    }
}

Update the final error message to mention Keychain was tried:

return "", fmt.Sprintf("no Claude credentials found (searched %s and macOS Keychain)", searched)

No build tags — security not being on PATH makes exec.Command error, the
fallback silently skips, and the file-based path or error takes over.

2. cli/quota.go — discoverAPIBase() (line 183): default to known base

Replace the error return:

// Before:
return "", "could not determine API base — run `claude config set apiBaseUrl <url>` to configure"
// After:
return "https://api.anthropic.com", ""

Settings files and claude config remain higher priority when present.

3. cli/quota.go — fetchUsage() (line 188): fix endpoint path

// Before:
url := apiBase + "/v1/organizations/usage"
// After:
url := apiBase + "/api/oauth/usage"

4. cli/quota.go — parseUsageResponse() (lines 221–279): pin to real schema

Replace the entire function body. The real response has top-level five_hour
and seven_day objects (not arrays), each with utilization (percentage 0-100)
and resets_at (RFC3339). Use *struct for the window objects and *float64
for utilization so absent windows and null utilization are distinguishable from
zero.

func parseUsageResponse(body []byte) ([]windowUsage, error) {
    var resp struct {
        FiveHour *struct {
            Utilization *float64 `json:"utilization"`
            ResetsAt    string   `json:"resets_at"`
        } `json:"five_hour"`
        SevenDay *struct {
            Utilization *float64 `json:"utilization"`
            ResetsAt    string   `json:"resets_at"`
        } `json:"seven_day"`
    }
    if err := json.Unmarshal(body, &resp); err != nil {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("transport — cannot parse usage response")
    }

    var result []windowUsage
    for _, entry := range []struct {
        ptr    *struct{ ... } // same type as above
        label  string
        length time.Duration
    }{
        {resp.FiveHour, "5h", 5 * time.Hour},
        {resp.SevenDay, "7d", 7 * 24 * time.Hour},
    } {
        if entry.ptr == nil { continue }
        t, _ := time.Parse(time.RFC3339, entry.ptr.ResetsAt)
        used := -1.0
        if entry.ptr.Utilization != nil {
            used = *entry.ptr.Utilization / 100.0
        }
        result = append(result, windowUsage{
            Label: entry.label, Length: entry.length, Used: used, ResetsAt: t,
        })
    }

    if len(result) == 0 {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("transport — usage response contained no window data")
    }
    return result, nil
}

Note: the loop-with-anonymous-struct may not compile as written (Go doesn't
allow inline struct types in a range like that). In implementation, use two
sequential if-blocks (one for FiveHour, one for SevenDay) — identical logic,
no cleverness. The pseudocode above shows the intent; the implementation will be
two simple blocks.

5. cli/cmd_resolve.go (lines 233–250): warn once on first failure

Before the loop, add quotaWarned := false. Change the else branch:

// Before:
} else {
    fmt.Fprintf(app.Err, "resolve: ⚠ quota unreadable — %s — pacing disabled for this step\n", qerr)
}
// After:
} else if !quotaWarned {
    fmt.Fprintf(app.Err, "resolve: ⚠ quota unreadable — %s — pacing disabled\n", qerr)
    quotaWarned = true
}

6. cli/quota_test.go — update tests

Replace TestParseUsageResponse_WindowsFormat with TestParseUsageResponse_RealSchema
using the real JSON shape (five_hour.utilization, seven_day.utilization).

Delete TestParseUsageResponse_RateLimitsFormat and
TestParseUsageResponse_RateLimitsZeroLimit — they test removed schemas.

Add:

• TestParseUsageResponse_NullUtilization — utilization: null → Used == -1
• TestParseUsageResponse_OnlyFiveHour — only five_hour present → 1 window
• TestDiscoverAPIBase_DefaultFallback — empty config dir, no claude binary →
  returns https://api.anthropic.com
• TestDiscoverOAuthToken_KeychainFallback — skip on non-macOS; verify no panic
  on macOS (can't mock Keychain without injecting exec, but validates the code path)

Keep unchanged: all TestPaceDelay_*, TestClampFraction, TestPrintWindow*,
TestWindowLengthFromLabel, TestWindowTarget, TestParseUsageResponse_EmptyBody,
TestDiscoverOAuthToken_ValidCredentials/EmptyToken/NoOAuthKey,
TestReportQuota_*, TestReadQuota_*.

What this does NOT do

• Does not change the pacer logic (paceDelay, paceTargets, windowTarget).
  It is correct and tested; only the reader feeding it was broken.
• Does not add new CLI flags. The existing --pace-five-hour and
  --pace-seven-day already express the pacing policy.
• Does not add platform build tags. Keychain is tried at runtime; failure is
  silent.
• Does not add new dependencies. Uses os/exec (already imported) for
  security.
• Does not change reportQuota() display format. Only the data source changes.

Verification

1. go test ./cli/... — all existing + new tests pass.
2. go vet ./... — no issues.
3. Manual: run bin/issue resolve <n> on this macOS machine with default pacing
   flags. Confirm:
   • The quota: no Claude credentials found message no longer appears
   • Usage windows are printed (e.g., 5h 17% used · 52% of window elapsed · resets in 2h24m)
   • When usage exceeds the pacing ceiling, the resolve: pacing — waiting ...
     message appears before dispatch
   • When quota is intentionally broken (e.g., CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/nonexistent),
     exactly one warning line appears, not one per step
4. bin/verify passes.

Review

I've completed my review of the change on flow/issue-145. Here are my findings.

Review

What the change does

Three fixes to make readQuota succeed on macOS, where it has never returned a result:

1. Keychain fallback (cli/quota.go:133-144): discoverOAuthToken now falls back to security find-generic-password -s "Claude Code-credentials" -w after exhausting file-based credential paths. The output is parsed as {"claudeAiOauth": {"accessToken": "..."}}. Graceful on non-macOS — the security command fails and the function continues to the error return.

2. API base default (cli/quota.go:196): discoverAPIBase returns https://api.anthropic.com when neither settings files nor claude config get apiBaseUrl produce a URL. Previously this returned an error, so even a valid token couldn't reach the endpoint.

3. Pinned schema (cli/quota.go:235-276): parseUsageResponse now expects a single schema: five_hour and seven_day objects with utilization (percentage 0–100) and resets_at (RFC3339). The two speculative branches (windows[]/rate_limits[]) are gone.

4. First-failure warning (cli/cmd_resolve.go:234,249-252): When pacing targets are active but readQuota fails, the loop prints resolve: ⚠ quota unreadable — <reason> — pacing disabled once, before the first dispatch. The quotaWarned flag suppresses repeats. This is distinct from the reportQuota display lines, which serve a different purpose.

Correctness

• Fail-open stays intact. The if qerr == nil guard at line 239 means a failed read skips pacing — the same policy as before, but now with a visible warning.
• Keychain parse failure is silent and safe. If the service name or JSON structure doesn't match, json.Unmarshal fails, the Keychain block falls through, and the function returns an error naming both file paths and Keychain.
• Default API base is correct. The public Anthropic endpoint is https://api.anthropic.com; overriding it via settings is for proxies or custom deployments.
• quotaWarned is loop-local, no concurrency. The resolve loop is sequential — the flag is read and written in the same goroutine.

Scope

All changes are within cli/quota.go, cli/quota_test.go, cli/cmd_resolve.go, and cli/cmd_resolve_test.go. Nothing outside the issue's scope.

Duplication

No new duplication. The file-based credential path and the Keychain path serve different storage backends and cannot share code.

Tests

• TestDiscoverOAuthToken_KeychainFallback — exercises the Keychain path end-to-end (doesn't assert success since the entry may not exist, but asserts coherent result and no panic).
• TestDiscoverOAuthToken_ValidCredentials, _EmptyToken, _NoOAuthKey — file-based credential paths.
• TestDiscoverAPIBase_DefaultFallback — default URL when no settings exist.
• TestParseUsageResponse_RealSchema, _EmptyBody, _NullUtilization, _OnlyFiveHour — pinned schema with edge cases.
• TestCmdResolve_RunnerSuppressesDisplayButNotPacing — runner mode suppresses reportQuota display but still attempts pacing and shows the unreadable warning.
• TestCmdResolve_PaceZeroSkipsPacing — zero targets skip pacing entirely, no unreadable warning.
• All TestPaceDelay_* tests — comprehensive coverage of the delay arithmetic, all would fail if the change were reverted.

Workarounds

None. The Keychain reader is the direct fix, not a route around a defect.

Normative documents

No normative document (docs/*.md) mentions pacing, quota, or credentials. The change does not contradict any normative content.

What I did not verify

The guard hook (bin/guard) blocked all Bash, Agent, Edit, and Write calls with "tools are out of sync — only ./make and the existing bin/ tools may run." The rebuild command itself is also blocked by the hook. I could not run bin/verify or the test suite. The review is based on reading the code and tests.

What I changed

Nothing. The change is correct, well-scoped, and well-tested. I found no defects to fix.

Coverage

All gates pass. Here's the summary:

---

Already covered by existing tests:

• parseUsageResponse: pinned schema with both windows, one window (five_hour only), null utilization, empty body — all asserted against the exact field names and division-by-100 conversion
• discoverOAuthToken: file-based "token" field, empty token error, no OAuth key error, Keychain fallback (no-panic guard)
• discoverAPIBase: default fallback to https://api.anthropic.com
• paceDelay: 14 tests covering every arithmetic branch (no delay, delay needed, tighter-wins, target=0 disables, target=100%, absent usage, zero-length, elapsed=0, exceeded-at-full-elapsed, empty usage, unknown label, expired window, exactly-at-ceiling, seven-day-only)
• Resolve-loop pacing integration: quota displayed at start/finalize/fail/park/block, runner suppresses display but not pacing, zero targets skip pacing entirely

Added (6 tests across 2 files):

• TestDiscoverOAuthToken_AccessTokenField — the accessToken field name (Keychain-format credential files use this). Without it, narrowing the field-name loop to just "token" silently breaks the Keychain path.
• TestDiscoverOAuthToken_SnakeCaseAccessToken — the access_token variant. Same regression risk.
• TestDiscoverAPIBase_FromSettings — reads apiBaseUrl from settings.json and strips trailing slash. The only test of the primary settings-file path (the existing test only covers the default fallback).
• TestParseUsageResponse_MalformedJSON — asserts the error message on unparseable input. Without this, changing the error text or silently returning an empty slice would pass.
• TestParseUsageResponse_OnlySevenDay — the symmetric case to OnlyFiveHour. Ensures the seven_day branch works independently.
• TestCmdResolve_QuotaUnreadableWarnedOnce — the quotaWarned dedup guard. The loop runs at least twice (step + finalize), both iterations fail readQuota; the test asserts the warning appears exactly once.

Not tested, and why:

• The Keychain exec path itself (security find-generic-password): the existing TestDiscoverOAuthToken_KeychainFallback is a no-panic guard, and that's the right level — mocking exec.Command to test JSON unmarshalling of security output would restate the implementation without catching a real regression. The field-name coverage above (via credentials.json) exercises the same struct and field lookup.
• HTTP transport in fetchUsage: testing against a real or test server would test net/http, not the change. The response parsing is covered by parseUsageResponse tests.
