+# Implementation Spec: Round 10 — COMPLETE
+
+## Goal
+Auto-integration + ergonomics: rate-limit workers, auto-metrics on service calls —
+reduce manual wiring/boilerplate.
+
+## New Features
+
+### 1. AutoMetricsServiceBuilder (mytheclipse-core, observability)
+File: `crates/mytheclipse/src/auto_metrics_service.rs`
+- Composes ServiceBuilder + MetricsCollector (+ MetricsBridge when resiliency)
+- `.run()` auto-records: calls_total counter (labelled by outcome ok/err/timeout/
+  circuit_open/rate_limited) + duration histogram; emits bridge when attached
+- Chainable .with_collector/.with_bridge/.with_builders
+- 1 test
+
+### 2. RateLimitedWorkerPool (mytheclipse-queue, in-memory)
+File: `crates/mytheclipse-queue/src/worker_rate_limited.rs`
+- Wraps WorkerPool with RateLimitedQueue — token-bucket back-pressured dequeue,
+  prevents workers hammering upstream beyond rate limit
+- new(queue, worker_cfg, rate_per_sec, burst) + start(topic, handler)
+- 1 test (construction)
+
+## Files

+  boilerplate that races easily by hand
+- `parallel_map(items, concurrency, f) -> Result<Vec<T>, AggregateError>` —

+  concurrency WITHOUT materializing the whole input first (unlike parallel_map
+  which collects up front)
+- Bounded mpsc channel (capacity = concurrency*2) + producer task + worker
+  pool sharing the receiver behind a tokio Mutex — inherent backpressure

+### 4. ServiceBuilder RateLimiter API (mytheclipse-core)
+File: `crates/mytheclipse/src/service_builder.rs`

+## Notes
+- `Arc<HealthRegistry>` in AsyncLifecycleManager because HealthRegistry doesn't impl Clone
+- Doctest marked `ignore` (async runtime not available in doctest context)
+- Lint checker false-positives on `async fn` (edition 2015 phantom) but actual cargo build/tests pass
