api: record requested vCPU and memory for creates - #1510
Record effective requested vCPU and guest-memory sizes for cold creates and successful warm-pool adoptions. Cold creates record at the cluster-admission decision, including rejected demand; pool claims use the adopted sandbox row's size after successful preparation. Forks and unresolved or invalid sizes are excluded.
Add a ClusterAdmissionRejection error kind to distinguish cluster admission refusals from unrelated HTTP 429s, without changing response headers or retry causes. Distribution counts represent eligible recorded creates, not all incoming requests. Remove telemetry-only assertions and the metric-specific Postgres fixture while preserving pool behavior and admission-classification coverage.
Validation
git diff --check and the repository pre-commit secret check passed for the review patch.
The following also passed on an equivalent locally restacked version of the review patch before the task-owned devbox worktrees were removed:
These Rust commands were not rerun on the final published commit. Runtime metric ingestion has not been validated.
Severity and risk
Severity does not apply: this adds observability, not a bug fix. Risk is concentrated in recording boundaries and admission-error classification; recording must not change which requests are admitted or how they retry. The classification marker preserves existing response and retry metadata.
Rollback: revert this PR's create recording and classification changes. The parent metric definitions and shared error constructor can remain.
Why: Rejected cold creates now produce requested-size samples before the admission error returns. The response and retry behavior is preserved, but this change to the create failure path should be explicitly accepted before merging.
Commit: fd3071fcd33d.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The API now identifies cluster admission rejections separately from retry causes. It records requested-size metrics for eligible cold creates and warm-pool claims. Documentation describes metric names, tags, and recording rules. Tests cover admission classification, size validation, and defaulting.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to ea196
The inspected changes preserve existing access controls, admission decisions, and retry behavior. No introduced security weakness was established. Remaining uncertainty concerns telemetry delivery and its runtime failure behavior.

No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The inspected exposure change is additional telemetry from controlled create attempts: resource sizes and existing template, client, surface, admission, and defaulting fields. Recording does not grant sandbox ownership or resource authority. Collector access policies and downstream retention were not established by this review.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — The classifier only borrows the admission result. Unrelated HTTP 429 errors are not classified as cluster refusals, and the original admission error still stops cold creation before insertion. Pool recording reads the adopted sandbox rather than accepting an independent request-supplied size as authoritative.

Explanation
The reviewed diff does not remove or weaken a test, assertion, lint, CI check, or repository guard. The only test-file changes update documentation and add admission-classification assertions. The query change replaces the direct admission propagation with result handling so it can record metrics, then still propagates the same admission error. No safeguard configuration files or CI steps changed.

- Around line 110-112: Update the positive size filter used before metric
emission to enforce the same storage bound as stored_resource, rather than
accepting every positive u32 value. Apply that bound to both vCPU and memory
values so sizes that cannot be stored are excluded from both distributions.

Covered: native creates are recorded with surface:native on both paths: the dispatcher cold path (create_with_sandbox_id) and admission-time warm-pool claims (create_with_admitted_pool_claim), via public_sandbox_operations.rs.
Gap: client_id will be unknown for native.requested() reads client_id from the request scope set by the route middleware (scope_request_client_id in routes/metrics.rs), but native creates execute later on the dispatcher / InlineOperations task, outside that scope. So every native sample will tag client_id:unknown (the observability doc already notes work handed to another task reports unknown). If the ticket needs a per-client breakdown for native, we'd need to carry the client id on the operation and re-scope it in the executor. Not blocking if per-client isn't needed for native.
FYI: rate-limited admission refusals get re-queued by the dispatcher, so each retry that reaches admission adds another admission:rejected sample. The docs mention retries; just flagging that rejected counts for native will be inflated relative to unique requests.

I actually think we can remove client_id from this metric. @nikhilbirmiwal-pplx you requested it. The client breakdown adds cardinality and do you have a use-case that we need for it now?
update: decided to support client_id in a followup.

Record sandbox.api.requested.vcpu and sandbox.api.requested.memory_bytes
with kind:create for every cold and warm-pool create, using the size the
sandbox will run with after template and warm-pool defaults are
applied.
A cold create records at its cluster admission decision, so a create
the admission limiter refuses still reports the size it asked for, as
admission:rejected. A warm-pool claim records admission:accepted when
it is adopted. defaulted is false only when the request named both
vCPU and memory; warm-pool claims are always defaulted. A fork, whose
size comes from its source snapshot, and a create whose size the API
did not resolve record nothing.
To tell admission refusals from other 429s, ControllerError gains a
ClusterAdmissionRejection kind, set by the shared admission refusal
constructor. Retry causes are unchanged.
A cold create's resolved size reaches the requested-size distributions at
its admission decision, before the insert converts each value to the
sandbox row's i32 column. CreateSandboxRequest accepts any u32, so a
request for 2147483648 vCPUs with valid memory was recorded as an
accepted size even though stored_resource then refused it with a 400.
The recorder now passes the create's size through the same
stored_resource bound before emitting, so a size the create cannot
store enters neither distribution. Every size the recorder reads is
then the stored i32, so the positive-size check takes that type
directly.
…r retry
Native creates run as queued operations. When cluster admission refuses
one for lack of tokens, the dispatcher re-queues it behind the limiter
without spending its retry budget, and each re-execution that reaches
admission records another admission:rejected sample; an empty-cluster
refusal is retried within the transient-error budget. State that this
makes surface:native rejected counts overstate refused requests, and
that an ECW 429 adds a sample only when the caller retries.
