How Tokening Stops Parallel AI Agents From Spending One Grant Twice

A call can be perfectly in scope and still arrive at the wrong moment. Picture two workers that picked up the same task. Both hold the same one-use grant. Both send the same valid edit within a few milliseconds of each other. If the gateway checks the counter, forwards both calls and only then writes the counter down, both edits go through. The grant said one. WordPress got two.

This isn’t exotic. Job queues hand out the same work twice, schedulers fire late and early, and agents retry when a reply takes too long. Any limit that’s read and updated in separate steps will lose to timing sooner or later.

The demo on this site is a recording, and it’s worth knowing what was recorded and how, because a demo is only as good as the checks behind it. Everything below runs with one command, make demo, and you can run it yourself.

The setup

Docker starts a fresh WordPress with three seeded posts, a database, Tokening and an agent. The agent is a short Python script, not a language model, so every run sends exactly the same calls. That makes the result something you can compare from run to run.
