Octopool is a production-grade GitHub API relay and caching proxy, deployed as a Cloudflare Worker with a companion Go CLI. It pools multiple GitHub identities (PATs, GitHub App installations) to share API quota, caches responses in D1 and edge cache, and applies string-rewrite policies to protect sensitive data. The CLI acts as a drop-in `gh` shim, routing eligible read commands through the relay before falling back to native `gh`. The system also supports token-free transports (public web pages, raw content, Git smart HTTP) to minimize API consumption. Architecture includes Durable Objects for coordination (pool identity selection, cache-fill ownership, policy revisioning), D1 for persistent cache and audit, and edge cache for low-latency reads. The codebase is dual-language (TypeScript for Worker, Go for CLI) with extensive unit and e2e tests, CI/CD, and a dashboard for monitoring.
The LLM identified 4 files worth highlighting for reuse:
An in-memory TTL cache with request-scoped coalescing of pending loads, capacity-based eviction, and invalidation. Uses AsyncLocalStorage to deduplicate concurrent lookups for the same key. Reusable as a hot cache layer for any backend that needs to reduce database reads with bounded staleness.
Implements a cache-fill acquisition and publication protocol using Durable Objects. Provides acquire/renew/complete lifecycle with automatic renewal and deadline enforcement, ensuring only one worker fills a cache entry at a time. Reusable for any distributed system needing exclusive write access to a shared resource.
A string rewrite engine that compiles JSON-based rules into a trie, validates patterns against a safe subset of regex, and applies rewrites to request paths, query strings, headers, and body content. Includes structural guards to prevent accidental matches in non-text contexts. Reusable for any content protection or data governance layer.
A Go HTTP client that makes relayed requests to the Octopool Worker, handling envelope encoding/decoding, error propagation, and fallback to native `gh`. Demonstrates a clean pattern for building a CLI proxy that transparently routes API calls through a remote relay. Reusable for any CLI tool that needs to intercept and redirect API calls.
