P2: The guard performs a read-only check (countApifyRunDescendants / countApifyScraperRunsForAccount) and returns allowed: true without atomically reserving capacity; the actual spawn happens later in the caller. Two or more webhooks for the same chain can concurrently read spawned = 49, both pass the spawned >= APIFY_RUN_BUDGET.perScrape check as false, and both spawn — yielding overshoot of the cap. The same applies to the hourly account cap. For sequentially delivered webhooks this holds, so the hard-ceiling contract ("50 runs per originating scrape", "150 per account per hour") only holds when check and spawn are serialized — exactly the path meant to stop the unbounded crawl. Reserve capacity atomically (e.g., insert the pending run in the same DB transaction as the count check, or serialize per-chain handling) so the budget is enforced against concurrent webhook handlers.

Done in ffb22d3: selectApifyScraperRunIdsByParent.ts is gone; selectApifyScraperRun({ runId?, parentRunIds? }) returns rows (an explicit empty parentRunIds short-circuits to []). Callers: registerSpawnedApifyRun and the guard's root walk take [0], countApifyRunDescendants maps run_id per generation. Tests updated first (5 RED → 138 GREEN), tsc clean.

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Limit selected child rows to the remaining budget.
frontier.slice(0, upTo) limits parent IDs. It does not limit rows returned by selectApifyScraperRunIdsByParent. A parent with many children can still load every child ID before Math.min() truncates the count.
Pass upTo - total to the selector and apply it with Supabase .limit(). This keeps the guard query bounded and avoids a query failure that guardApifyRunBudget converts into an allowed spawn.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Do not allow a partially traversed lineage to pass the budget guard.
When either traversal reaches its depth limit with more lineage remaining, the code returns a partial result as if it were complete. A runaway chain can then bypass the per-scrape cap because the guard counts only a suffix of that chain.

Return when parentRunId is absent.
When parsed.resource.id is falsy, handleInstagramCommentsScraper skips guardApifyRunBudget and starts startInstagramProfileScraping with no parent. ApifyRunLineage permits this value, so the run starts without a parent and registerSpawnedApifyRun is skipped. This can create an unregistered, unbudgeted fan run. Comments are already persisted, so return { comments, processedPostUrls } before starting the run.

| Hourly account cap — root with 1 descendant, account with 152 runs in the last hour | comments persisted, no fan batch, alert | webhook 200 in 1.6 s; Apify latest run unchanged; 0 spawned rows |

| Unregistered parent fails open (documented) | spawn allowed, registered with null account | my first replay used a comments run id that was not registered: 6v6ZNfKWYRmpAV8kw spawned with parent_run_id __budget_comments_A, account_id null. A production comments run is always registered by the profile handler before its webhook arrives, so this path only applies to chains rooted before lineage shipped |
| Comments persistence unaffected by a block | 12 comments re-upserted either way | response { comments: 12, processedPostUrls: 12 } on all three fires |
Review fix (ffb22d3c) | one selectApifyScraperRun({ runId | parentRunIds }) | the guard's root walk and descendant count ran through it on all three fires |
Please confirm on your side: two Telegram messages starting *Apify run budget tripped* at ~17:20:11Z (per-scrape, names root __budget_root_A) and ~17:21:09Z (hourly, names account fb678396…). I can't read that chat.
Cost: two Instagram profile runs of 12 handles (the fail-open spawn and the control), no credits charged.

P3: The parentRunIds path returns every matching child row with no bound, and countApifyRunDescendants accumulates the full generation (total += frontier.length) before stopping. In a runaway chain — the exact scenario this budget guard exists to catch — one generation can be far larger than the upTo/50 cap, and all of those rows (including new_post_urls JSON via select("*")) are pulled into memory in a single request. Bounding the in() input to 50 ids caps the query, not the result set; consider a limit or a count/aggregate at the DB layer so the descendant walk stops without materializing an oversized generation.

Budget PR for recoupable/app#2018, defense in depth behind the origin guard. Stacked on api#866 (base is that branch; GitHub retargets to
mainwhen it merges). Merge order: docs#316 → database#65 → api#866 → this.What changes
guardApifyRunBudget({ parentRunId, platform })— resolves the root scrape by walkingparent_run_id(bounded), counts the root's descendants (countApifyRunDescendants, generation walk, max depth 5) and the owning account's registered runs in the last hour (countApifyScraperRunsForAccount). Caps: 50 per originating scrape, 150 per account per hour (APIFY_RUN_BUDGET). A healthy artist scrape spawns 2 runs; the unbounded crawl ran ~300/hour.console.error+ one Telegram message (sendMessage), returns{ allowed: false, reason }. Alerts are naturally bounded: a blocked run never starts, so no further webhooks arrive for that chain.handleInstagramProfileFollowUpRuns(comments run) andhandleInstagramCommentsScraper(commenter batch). Comments are still persisted when the batch is blocked.Tests (RED → GREEN)
guardApifyRunBudget(7: under cap, root walk, per-scrape trip, hourly trip, unregistered parent, Telegram failure, DB failure),countApifyRunDescendants(3), plus a "guard blocks → nothing starts" case in each spawn-site test.lib/apify+lib/supabase+lib/socials+lib/artist: 593 passing.Verification plan
On the preview, once database#65 is applied: seed 50

Summary by cubic
Caps how many Apify runs a single webhook chain can spawn so one scrape can't turn into an unbounded crawl. Spawns are blocked at 50 per originating scrape and 150 per account per hour, with a Telegram alert when a cap trips.
Behavior
parent_run_idup to the root scrape, counts its descendants (bounded at depth 5), and counts the account's runs in the last hour.Rollout
