Use when a venue queues excess order messages instead of rejecting them, so congestion shows up only as acknowledgement latency. Detects undeclared throttling from an EWMA ACK round-trip baseline and paces dispatch with AIMD backoff.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## When to Use Invoke this skill when a bot dispatches order flow to a venue that **queues or paces excess messages instead of rejecting them**, so congestion never appears as an error code and shows up only as acknowledgment latency. The Interactive Brokers TWS API is the reference case: it "is designed to accept up to fifty messages per second coming from the client side," and beyond that rate messages are queued and delayed rather than refused. The `+PACEAPI` connect option makes TWS pace the client at 50/s instead of disconnecting it. In neither case does the client receive a signal — the only observable is ACK RTT rising. Use it to establish a latency baseline that a sustained throttle cannot quietly move, to detect acknowledgments that never arrive at all, and to slow dispatch until the condition clears. ## When NOT to Use - **When the venue tells you.** Binance returns HTTP 429 on a rate-limit breach and HTTP 418 once an IP is auto-banned for continuing to send after 429s, both carrying a `Retry-After` header; the IBKR *Web* API returns 429 and may put the IP in a 10-minute penalty box. An explicit response is authoritative and a latency inference is not — …

How to install
mdr add himanshuj16/algo-trading-skills/broker-side-order-throttle-detection@sha256:bd6832d1d0b196b1The line at the top of this page pins the label v3.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
