Mode is one of respect/force/disable. TTL is clamped to [0, 86400]. Salt is an optional cache-bust tag (max 64 chars). All writes emit a ChangeEvent so the gateway picks up the new rule within 30 s via its /changes long-poll. Send `Idempotency-Key` to make a retry safe. ## OpenAPI ````yaml POST /api/gateway/v1/cache-rules openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: LangWatch API version: 1.0.0 description: LangWatch openapi spec servers: - url: https://app.langwatch.ai security: - project_api_key: [] paths: /api/gateway/v1/cache-rules: post: tags: - Cache Rules summary: Create a cache rule description: >- Matchers are ANDed across non-null fields; at least one matcher is required.

The first request to use a key runs normally and its response is stored for 24 hours. A later request with the same key and the same body is not executed again: it returns the stored response, marked with `X-Idempotent-Replay: true`. The same key with a different body is refused 409 `idempotency_error`, as is a retry sent while the original is still running. Only successful responses are stored, so a create that failed can simply be retried with the same key. schema: type: string minLength: 8 maxLength: 255 requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: name: type: string minLength: 1 maxLength: 128 description: type: - string - 'null' maxLength: 512 priority: type: integer minimum: 0 maximum: 1000 enabled: type: boolean matchers: type: object properties: vk_id: type: string vk_tags: type: array items: type: string vk_prefix: type: string principal_id: type: string model: type: string request_metadata: type: object additionalProperties: type: string additionalProperties: false action: type: object properties: mode: type: string enum: - respect - force - disable ttl: type: integer minimum: 0 maximum: 86400 salt: type: string maxLength: 64 required: - mode additionalProperties: false required: - name - matchers - action responses: '201': description: Created headers: X-Idempotent-Replay: description: >- Present and `true` only when this body came from a stored response rather than a fresh execution.
