# Story 424: Rate limit traffic light status and hard block alerts

## User Story

As a ..., I want ..., so that ...

## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] Remove repetitive per-message throttle warnings (allowed_warning) from chat transports entirely
- [ ] Pipeline status messages show a coloured dot next to each work item: green for running normally, yellow for throttled, red for hard blocked, white/grey for idle/no agent
- [ ] Hard block events (429 / rate_limit_exceeded) still send an individual chat notification with a red icon, including the reset time
- [ ] Throttle and block state tracked per-agent so the status dot updates in real time
- [ ] Server-side logging of throttle warnings is preserved for debugging
- [ ] Traffic light dots in status report should be small/compact, not large emoji

## Out of Scope

- TBD
