Update schedule

When the bot next changes each of its Discord messages, and what that costs against Discord's rate limits.

How to read this

Discord limits how many requests a bot may send. The bot plans every change to fit under those limits instead of sending and being refused.

Each Discord message costs one request each time it changes. A message with images changes only when its images upload: one Upload request carries all its images and its text, so four images cost the same as one. A message without images uses Edit on the edit cycle, and skips the request when nothing changed. Uploads from all messages stay at least 75 seconds apart.

The boxed line adds this up: about how many requests the message costs per minute. Retries can add a few.

Rate budget says where the limits come from: safe defaults for a new bot, or the limits this bot learned from Discord's replies.

Discord limits (checked 2026-11-14)

Per message: 10 embeds, 6000 characters of embed text in total, 25 fields per embed, and 4096 characters per description. Each file can be up to 20 MiB, and one request up to 25 MiB. A bot can send 50 requests a second in total; each channel's edit limit is lower and is not published, so the bot reads it from Discord's replies. The bot splits the panel across more messages to stay under the embed count and text limits.

Measured on 2026-11-14 with one bot: a text edit and an image upload to the same message share one limit of 5 requests a second. Edits that carry images also meet an unpublished limit that counts uploads in every channel of the server. One upload every 75 seconds (48 an hour) held; refusals began near 65 uploads in an hour and asked for waits of 0.3 to 151 seconds. New messages with images were not refused.

How rate limits are handled

Discord allows 50 requests a second per bot; the bot uses at most 45 and keeps a tenth of each route's limit in reserve. Uploads stay at least 75 seconds apart across all channels, which stays under the measured upload limit. After a rate limit, the bot spaces that route out further, then eases back by 5% an hour, so it follows Discord if its limits change.
