Token counting, model quotas, and sliding window rate limiter
Automated fixes: interface{} → any, range-over-int, t.Context(),
wg.Go(), strings.SplitSeq, strings.Builder, slices.Contains,
maps helpers, min/max builtins.

go-ratelimit
Provider-agnostic sliding window rate limiter for LLM API calls. Enforces requests per minute (RPM), tokens per minute (TPM), and requests per day (RPD) quotas per model using an in-memory sliding window. Ships with default quota profiles for Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, and a local inference provider. State persists across process restarts via YAML (single-process) or SQLite (multi-process, WAL mode). Includes a Gemini-specific token counting helper and a YAML-to-SQLite migration path.

Quick Start
import "forge.lthn.ai/core/go-ratelimit"
// YAML backend (default, single-process)
rl, err := ratelimit.New()
// SQLite backend (multi-process)
rl, err := ratelimit.NewWithSQLite("~/.core/ratelimits.db")
defer rl.Close()
ok, reason := rl.CanSend("gemini-2.0-flash", 1500)
if ok {
rl.RecordUsage("gemini-2.0-flash", 1500)
}
