+ Optional client-provided idempotency key for safe request retries.
+
+ When present, the server ensures no additional effects for requests
that carry the same
+ Idempotency-Key within the same operation/resource scope. If a prior
request with this key
+ has been finalized, the server returns the previously finalized
response instead of
+ re-executing the mutation.
+
+ Finalization rules:
+ - Finalize & replay: 200, 201, 204, and deterministic terminal 4xx
+ - Do not finalize (not stored/replayed): 5xx, 409 request_in_progress
+
+ Key Requirements:
+ - Key format: UUID (V7 preferred)
Review Comment:
I would add that having a time component as part of the key could help
mitigate the "corruption" risk if a client tries to send an operation whose key
has expired. For example, catalog may know that cache has been emptied for some
reason and can invalidates all keys which have not been generated since the
purge. But if the key doesn't contain that piece of information, there's no way
for the server to be able to distinguish because an old operation vs a recent
one...
