ChangesRetry-After parsing
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds a shared Retry-After parser, but negative numeric header values currently produce negative durations. This is a bounded correctness issue in the new API; the change remains mergeable with owner awareness and a follow-up fix before the parser is used for retry scheduling. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Unlike
TestRetryStageHonorsRetryAfterandTestRetryStageWithoutRetryAfterUsesExponentialBackoff, this test doesn't document why 2 attempts (and not more) fit in the 200ms window — it relies on the same coupling tobackoff.NewExponentialBackOff()defaults (the secondNextBackOff()call producing a delay that exceeds the remaining budget). A short comment would help future maintainers understand the timing assumption if backoff defaults change.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

add generic handling of 429 in retrier. This will allow to remove any handling of 429 in the individual notifiers and instead rely on the retrier to handle it (TBD in follow-up PRs). Signed-off-by: Christoph Maser <christoph.maser+github@gmail.com>

A generic handler is desirable, but we don't want to achieve it without `CheckResponse` or `ErrorWithReason`. Follow-up work should expand the current handler though. Signed-off-by: Solomon Jacobs <solomonjacobs@protonmail.com>

RFC 9110 Retry-After delay-seconds non-negative decimal integer and Go strconv.Atoi signed input documentation
💡 Result:
RFC 9110 specifies that the Retry-After header's delay-seconds value is a non-negative decimal integer [1]. Because this value must be non-negative, any negative integer is semantically invalid for this field according to the HTTP specification [1]. When parsing such values in Go, it is important to note that the strconv.Atoi function is designed to parse signed integers [2][3]. Documentation for Atoi specifies that it is equivalent to calling strconv.ParseInt(s, 10, 0) and converting the result to the platform's int type [2][3][4]. Consequently, Atoi will successfully parse strings containing leading minus signs (e.g., "-5") and return negative int values [2][3][5]. Because Atoi does not enforce the non-negative constraint required by RFC 9110, developers must perform manual validation after parsing to ensure the value meets the header's requirements [1][2][5]. For example: val, err:= strconv.Atoi(headerValue) if err!= nil { // Handle invalid integer format } else if val < 0 { // Handle invalid semantic value (must be non-negative for Retry-After) } By using Atoi, the application will accept negative inputs as valid integers, making post-parsing validation essential to maintain compliance with RFC 9110 [1][2].

Reject negative numeric Retry-After values.
strconv.Atoi accepts signed input, so Retry-After: -1 returns -1 * time.Second. Return 0 when secs < 0, and add a regression test.
