Rate limit tokens per minute

[widarlein]

Hi!

First of all thanks for what seems like a great framework! Seems like so much thought was put into this, well done!

Secondly, I'm hitting a rate limit quota when using google Gemini and the playwright MCP. The moment the rate limit is hit, the execution stops. Is there a way of limiting the speed of the agent execution in order to not hit the ceiling of tokens per minute?

Agent setup:

Agent(
    instructions="You are an autonomous agent...",
    api_key = api_key,
    llm="gemini/gemini-2.5-flash",
    tools=MCP(
        command="npx",
        args=["@playwright/mcp@latest"],
        timeout=120,
    ),
    self_reflect=True,
    verbose=True
)

The error I'm getting:

{
    "error": {
        "code": 429,
        "message": "You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, head to: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/rate-limits.",

                ]
            },

                "retryDelay": "58s"
            }
        ]
    }
