Summary

  • 403 eviction: an internal operation's 403 now drops this instance's cached client-credential token only when the token is at least 60s old. This is the same age gate the external-request path uses. Before, any 403 evicted a still-valid token, including Sim's own file-access refusals and per-record permission denials on providers such as DocuSign, so the next call minted a new token every time. A 401 still evicts immediately.
  • Failure backoff: documented that the coordinated token cache backs off for 30 seconds after any failed exchange, whether the provider refused the credentials or had an outage. This matches the per-instance mint cache and the Vanta chain, so the policy is the same at every layer. No behavior change.
  • Cleanups:
    • Removed redundant redirect: 'error' options, since fetchProvider already defaults to it.
    • The Zendesk saved token param uses the shared savedCredentialTokenParam helper.
    • The SailPoint minter takes its token URL from resolveSailPointHosts.
    • Corrected the TSDoc for SailPoint and HubSpot.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix

Testing

  • New behavioral tests, each red before the fix and green after:
    • The credential cache, on a fake clock, keeps a token refused at 30s and replaces one refused at 61s.
  • 1479 targeted tests pass across lib/credentials, credential-service, lib/internal/sailpoint, tools/index.test.ts and tools/zendesk.
  • bunx biome check, check:test-patterns, check:comment-hygiene, check:utils, check:explicit-any, check:tool-metadata and the pre-push type-check pass.

Checklist

  • Code follows project style guidelines
  • Self-reviewed my changes
  • Tests added/updated and passing (new tests pass the test-audit authoring gate)
  • No new warnings introduced
  • I confirm that I have read and agree to the terms outlined in the Contributor License Agreement (CLA)

…sient mint failures

An internal operation's 403 now drops this instance's cached client-credential
token only once it is older than a minute, matching the external-request path,
so a 403 from a file-access refusal or per-record permission no longer re-mints
on every call. The coordinated token's failure memo keeps only refusals of the
credentials themselves; provider_unavailable propagates with no memo row.
…oint and HubSpot docs

fetchProvider already refuses redirects by default. Zendesk's hidden token param
uses savedCredentialTokenParam, the SailPoint minter takes its token URL from
resolveSailPointHosts, and the SailPoint host and HubSpot fallback TSDoc now
match the code.

[Medium impact] The PR appears safe to merge; no new actionable issues remain.

Summary

Adds a 60-second age check before an internal operation’s 403 removes a cached token. A 401 still removes it immediately.

  • Internal 403s keep recently minted client-credential tokens.
  • SailPoint saved credentials get token URLs from the shared tenant resolver.
  • Credential requests and notes now reuse shared rules.

  • During rollout, decodeFailure in apps/sim/lib/credentials/coordinated-client-token.ts rejects unexpired legacy provider_unavailable memos, so resolution throws without calling input.exchange. Handle that legacy format or invalidate those memos.

P2: `decodeFailure` rejects the `provider_unavailable` rows written by the previous implementation as malformed. During rollout, an unexpired legacy memo makes resolution throw without calling `input.exchange`, so transient failures remain cached; ignore and delete legacy transient rows instead of treating them as fatal.</violation>

…every failed exchange

Remembering only credential refusals in the shared row left the per-instance
mint cache and the Vanta chain still backing off on outages, so the policy
differed by layer. Keep the long-standing 30-second backoff everywhere and
document it.
