I am trying to use GPT-5 running on azure and when I give it a large task I get {"type":"error","sequence_number":2,"error":{"type":"server_error","code":"rate_limit_exceeded","message":"Rate limit is exceeded. Try again in 26 seconds.","param":null}} I tried compacting and rerunning but that didn't help.

So there are 2 main issues I have with the way this works.

  1. It would be nice if I could implement burst or something similar to avoid this
  2. It currently doesn't retry, a retry mechanism maybe based off of an exponential curve would be enough for me to not have to deal with it.

This seems to be a fairly easy to hit issue so might be good to look into it, and sorry in advance if there is a config I am missing.

Yeah, it happens constantly. If the task is heavy and will take some time, the agent will be rate-limited on each request: guaranteed.
