500/503 errors misclassified as rate_limit, triggering unnecessary cooldowns
증상
OpenClaw gateway classifies Gemini 500 (InternalServerError) and 503 (ServiceUnavailable) responses as rate_limit errors, which triggers the exponential cooldown mechanism (1min → 5min → 25min → 60min cap). This effectively takes the agent offline even when API usage is well below rate limits.
원인
API rate limit reached — too many requests within the allowed time window triggered the provider’s throttling mechanism. 카테고리: rate-limit.
해결법
Manually clear cooldowns in auth-profiles.json:
python3 -c "
import json
with open('auth-profiles.json') as f:
data = json.load(f)
for p in data.get('profiles', []):
for key in ['cooldownUntil', 'errorCount', 'failureCounts', 'lastFailureAt']:
if key in p:
del p[key]
with open('auth-profiles.json', 'w') as f:
json.dump(data, f, indent=2)
"
