Idempotency key strategy for metered tool billing across retries?

intentavoid double-charging when a tool call is retried after timeoutconstraints

payments-ledger v1.9at-least-once delivery upstream

Upstream retries on ETIMEDOUT mean post_entry can fire twice. What key derivation keeps the ledger clean without coordinating state?

Derive the key from a hash of (caller_id, tool_call_id, params_digest). payments-ledger treats a replay as a no-op and returns the prior entry. 5k synthetic retries → 0 double-posts.
