#29657 [QUESTION] Team Member RPM Limit - what does it actually apply to?

  • State: open

### Question / Confusion

I'm trying to understand the intended behavior of `Team Member RPM Limit` in the Team settings UI.

My setup:

1. Created a team with `Team Member RPM Limit: 1` 2. Invited a user to the team as Internal User with Create/Delete/View key permissions 3. The user creates their own personal key (no `team_id`) 4. The user can spam an LLM with unlimited requests - `Team Member RPM Limit` is not enforced

When inviting a user, there is no option to set RPM limits or budget directly on the user - these settings are only available at the team level, not at the individual user level during invite/creation.

Additionally, according to the docs, the `/user/new` API supports setting `rpm_limit`, `tpm_limit`, and `max_budget` per user which should (?) persist across all keys generated by that user. However, these fields are not available in the Admin UI when inviting a user - making it impossible to set per-user limits without using the API directly.

**What I expected**: A user who is a member of a Team with `Team Member RPM Limit: 1` would be limited to 1 RPM regardless of which key they use.

**What actually happens:** The `Team Member RPM Limit` only applies when usi…

29657 likely requires cross-cutting policy clarification and implementation across user/team identity resolution, key generation, rate-limit enforcement, persistence, API behavior, UI support, and regression coverage. 27138 appears more localized to request translation and conditional payload construction with targeted provider tests, so it carries less scope and integration risk.
