Walkthrough

The change adds error handling for three additional HTTP status codes (401 Unauthorized, 403 Forbidden, and 429 Too Many Requests) to the friendlyErrorDisplay utility function in apps/webapp/app/utils/httpErrors.ts. Each status code is assigned a specific title and default message. Existing handlers for status codes 400, 404, 500, and the default case remain unchanged.

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (.cursor/rules/otel-metrics.mdc)

**/*.ts: When creating or editing OTEL metrics (counters, histograms, gauges), ensure metric attributes have low cardinality by using only enums, booleans, bounded error codes, or bounded shard IDs
Do not use high-cardinality attributes in OTEL metrics such as UUIDs/IDs (envId, userId, runId, projectId, organizationId), unbounded integers (itemCount, batchSize, retryCount), timestamps (createdAt, startTime), or free-form strings (errorMessage, taskName, queueName)
When exporting OTEL metrics via OTLP to Prometheus, be aware that the exporter automatically adds unit suffixes to metric names (e.g., 'my_duration_ms' becomes 'my_duration_ms_milliseconds', 'my_counter' becomes 'my_counter_total'). Account for these transformations when writing Grafana dashboards or Prometheus queries

8-27: LGTM!

The new HTTP status code handlers are well-implemented and follow the existing pattern. The messages are user-friendly and appropriately actionable:

• 401 prompts sign-in
• 403 explains the permission issue
• 429 advises the user to wait

Consistent formatting and proper use of nullish coalescing for default messages.
