Request: temporary new-project rate-limit lift on PyPI for a coordinated monorepo release (user: pace)

Hey there! I’m hitting the 429 Too many new projects created limit while publishing the first release of a project, and I’d be grateful for a temporary lift or one-time exception.

I post here under a different handle than my PyPI username – my PyPI account is pace, and I’m happy to verify ownership via its registered email if that’s useful.

Context: I’m publishing 3tears, an open-source monorepo of 23 independently-versioned packages that share the threetears.* import namespace (repo: GitHub - pacepace/3tears: 3tears for all the things that prevent your python app from scaling horizontally, being easy to use with ai, and being fully observable. · GitHub ). They’re released in lockstep at v0.14.0. Because it’s a coordinated first release, all 23 are brand-new projects created together — which trips the new-project creation limit.

Current state: 4 projects were created before I hit the limit; it’s now been blocked for 12+ hours:

  • Already up: 3tears-object-store, 3tears-agent-memory, 3tears-agent-skills, 3tears-agent-wake
  • Still to create (19): 3tears, 3tears-nats, 3tears-observe, 3tears-models, 3tears-langgraph, 3tears-mcp, 3tears-epoch, 3tears-registry, 3tears-datasources, 3tears-channels,
    3tears-conversations, 3tears-media-contracts, 3tears-enforcement, 3tears-scheduled-jobs, 3tears-agent-acl, 3tears-agent-audit, 3tears-agent-knowledge, 3tears-agent-tools,
    3tears-agent-workspace

Ask: Could I get a temporarily raise for the new-project creation limit on my account (pace), or grant a one-time exception, so I can create the remaining 19? I publish via uv and am happy to stagger the uploads one project at a time, at whatever rate you prefer.

Thank you very much for PyPI!

Did you try emailing the admins? Address can be found at Help · PyPI .

But 3tears/.github/workflows/release.yml at 503b13a47eb96f90b131104921682dd8c47f5760 · pacepace/3tears · GitHub shows you using Trusted Publishing. But if you aren’t using that, then that might help deal with the throttling as Trusted Publishing might function under a different throttling mechanism since it’s a per-project thing and not using any personal token (but I’m speculating).

Yeah, it was a mess, I was trying to do trusted publisher, but then I couldn’t make the whole set of packages, so I did them by hand for a few days. Now I’m all set, just needed to plug away. Thanks for the help!
