Issue
Due to low api rate limit of onshape, users get stuck in the middle of working without any pre-warning.
Also, users have to wait until the api rate comes back, but they have no idea when it will.
Solution
I made a simple feature that shows remaining api rate limit and "retry-after" time
so that users can take a break until it comes back.
users can use it by typing "onshape-to-robot-check-rate" at any location.
The display will look like this:
=== Onshape API rate-limit check ===
Status : 200
Date (server) : Tue, 11 Nov 2025 16:59:31 GMT
X-Api-Version : v1
On-Version : 1.206.66766.5be5fb5f0d8e
X-Request-ID : xxxxx
X-Rate-Limit-Remaining : 992
Retry-After(seconds) : N/A
or
=== Onshape API rate-limit check ===
Status : 200
Date (server) : Tue, 11 Nov 2025 16:59:31 GMT
X-Api-Version : v1
On-Version : 1.206.66766.5be5fb5f0d8e
X-Request-ID : xxxxx
X-Rate-Limit-Remaining : 0
Retry-After(seconds) : 5623
Please note that this DOES consume one rate.
