A Play subscription purchase is asked about without any offline check, so any token in the accepted grammar spends a read from the Subscriptions quota renewal checks share. The purchase path now takes one of a minute's 300 reads for each Play subscription it asks about, a tenth of Play's default quota; with none left, the claim is answered rate_limited with the seconds left in the minute and is not held, as Play was not asked. A claim already held takes no read, and App Store claims, verified offline first, take none.
Run: 007-subscriptions-retirement-lane, slice 3
takeToken counted a request against a minute's limit inline. The step becomes takeFrom, a pure function, so the purchase path's Play read allowance can use the same rule. No behaviour change.

Renewal checks shared the store lane with every purchase, so made-up Play tokens, which anyone can send, and the weekly burst of genuine purchases delayed them. Renewal checks now wait on a lane of their own, which only a request signed by the purchase key it names, and due its hourly store check, can reach.
Run: 007-subscriptions-retirement-lane, slice 2
The router answered "may this request ask a store" as a Bool; renewal checks are to get a lane of their own, which a Bool cannot say. requestLane now names the lane: main, purchase or renewal. Both store lanes still share one queue, so no request changes lane.

R4-1: a subscription badge is asked about first and retired only after the service answers, judged on the ledger after that answer. Retiring before asking used the client's paidThrough, which moves only when the client asks, so a subscriber who had not opened the app for longer than the recovery window while the store kept charging lost the badge at the next launch and was never asked again. A request that is not answered retires nothing. Tests: testSubscriptionRetiredAfterRecoveryWindow changed, testIdleSubscriptionKeptPastWindow and testSubscriptionNotRetiredWithoutAnswer added.
R4-2: one snooze comment where two contradicted each other.
R4-3: the recovery window's comment names Play's clipped period start.
R4-4: the retirement tests use subscriptionRecoveryWindow.
Your badge shows only while a badge is shown, so a purchase Restore found there with no record on this device was held under a profile whose held receipts are not processed while it shows a badge: not credited, nothing said, and on Android acknowledged, ending Play's three-day refund. Restore stays on Check your order, the one screen where a restored purchase can be processed.

A subscription badge retired only on an ended answer, so a service that never sent one (a final error such as unknown_purchase_key, a rollback, a service that never answers) left the badge shown, one request a day forever, and the profile unable to redeem, buy or have a held receipt credited. Now it also retires once paidThrough is older than the longest store recovery window: Apple retries a failed renewal for up to 60 days, the longest with Play's pause off, plus a week. paidThrough counts every month the ledger holds, so banked months are never retired by it.

An unmapped SUBSCRIPTION_STATE_PAUSED was answered internal, so a paused subscriber's renewal failed for the whole pause. Play reports a pause with auto-renewal on and charges again when it ends, so it now maps as an active subscription does: renewing, or cancelled with auto-renewal off. Pause is being turned off on the base plan; this is defence in depth. A pause grants nothing: Play names no new order, and the last one is already granted.

The purchase path's hourly bound covered only App Store claims, so a re-presented Play subscription token, uncredited or credited to another key, spent a subscriptionsv2.get call each time, from the quota bucket Play renewal checks use. The bound now lives in purchaseSubscription, which both stores' purchase paths call, with one map per store: Play's keyed by the token's hash, so made-up Play tokens cannot fill the App Store's. Distinct made-up tokens are still one call each.

The hold on the stored wake let two moments the client does not schedule end it early. A renewal whose store check failed was answered with an hour's retryAfter, so the next activation after each hour sent it again, sampling when the app is opened. A snooze set before a request ended its wait at the snooze's end, timing the next request by the user's tap. Now a request that issued nothing waits the stall or a ledger moment: retryAfter only marks the failure transient, and a snooze is not a wake while a request waits; the request's own wake raises the alert again.

Anyone holding a real but uncreditable App Store subscription JWS, such as
their own lapsed subscription, could present it again and again, each time
spending an App Store Server API call from the quota every subscriber's
renewal check needs. The purchase path now remembers, in memory, which
subscription claims it asked about within the hour and answers a repeat
payment_pending with the time left. Keys are original transaction ids from
JWS that verified offline, entries expire after the hour, and a full table
asks rather than refuses, so memory stays bounded and no buyer waits on
another's claim.

While a subscription waited for its store charge, or a prepaid renewal
kept failing, every launch, foreground, profile switch and badge-state
read sent the issue request again, so the badge service saw the user's
app-open times for weeks. A due request now waits for the wake the last
pass stored, as long as that wake is no more than a stall interval away,
so it is asked again a day later as the renewal design says.
Run: 005-subscriptions-load-timing, slice 3
App Store subscription purchases and subscription renewal checks called
their store from the main lane, so one slow or repeated store call held up
code redemptions and every other renewal. The router now reads the
purchase the way the issue path does and sends to the store lane every
request that may ask a store: Play purchases, App Store auto-renewable
purchases, and issue requests for a subscription due its store check,
judged a minute ahead so the handler never finds one due on the main lane.
Run: 005-subscriptions-load-timing, slice 2

Play answers HTTP 410 for a subscription that expired too long ago to be
queried; it was read as unreachable, so the service never answered ended,
the badge was never retired and the profile stayed blocked from buying or
redeeming (R1-2). Play order ids appear on the buyer's receipt email, so
charges now store a hash of the order id, as purchase tokens already are
(R1-10).

Only a device with a subscription asks its store for products and status
when reporting, and the purchases are marked checked before the report
(R1-14, R1-5: Kotlin now loads the products, so the price shows after a
restart). Restore says "Nothing to restore" after a cancelled purchase
(R1-7). Android keeps sweeping one-time purchases when the subscriptions
query fails (R1-6). The freshness comment in requestBadgeIssue states the
service's one-hour repeat of its last check (R1-1).

The Kotlin port of the iOS store change. A Play subscription was
acknowledged uncredited; every badge product now goes through a core
invoice and is handed over. The sweep queries subscriptions as well as
one-time products, and the sweep and purchases listener hand over as listed,
so another device on the Google account does not claim them; Restore claims
them for this profile. A subscription is bought on its base plan's own
offer, and the app never acknowledges one itself: the service does when it
credits it, so Play still refunds one the service never credits.
The app reports Play's isAutoRenewing to the core as renewing or cancelled.

A subscription transaction was finished uncredited, so a buyer would pay and
get nothing. Every badge product now goes through a core invoice and is
handed over, and finished only once the core answers it credited or refused.
Transactions the store lists (the launch sweep, Transaction.updates) are
handed over as listed, so another device's purchase is not claimed here;
Restore purchases syncs with the App Store and claims them for this profile.
A revoked renewal is finished without hand-over, as the service would refuse
it and so the whole subscription.
The app reports StoreKit's renewal state to the core at each sweep, after the
manage-subscriptions sheet and after a restore. Monthly and annual are offered
only to an Apple ID with no earlier subscription in the group, which Apple

With [dev] accept_unverified_store_receipts on, every subscription was
answered provider_not_configured, so the apps' subscription screens could
not be tried against a dev service. The mock now credits an App Store
subscription for the plan its product names, and a Play subscription for
the base plan a test token test.<basePlanId>.<uuid> names, or else its
product's monthly plan, from a minute ago; it remembers the plan in memory
and grants each renewal a new charge, answering a subscription it does not
know (after a restart) as ended.
The subscription check is given the product the presented receipt names,
which only the mock reads; it reads the service's badge clock at check time.

A subscription's alerts were the prepaid ones: a retired subscription said
"support ended", and nothing told the user a payment failed, an annual
renewal was near, or a cancelled subscription still runs. The derived alert
for a subscription is now, in order: subscription_ended once retired,
payment_issue while the store retries, issue_failed as before,
subscription_cancelled before paidThrough, and renewal_approaching from
three days before an annual plan renews, with a wake at that moment. Monthly
plans get no reminder, as there is no opt-out yet.
The unreleased migration's down step clears an acked subscription_cancelled,
which an older core cannot read.

A code redeemed while a store receipt is held put the code's badge on the
profile, and the held receipt then waited behind it; for a subscription the
store kept charging every period meanwhile. Code redemption and invoice
creation now answer "store purchase open" while the profile holds an App
Store subscription receipt, or another receipt whose last failure can clear
on its own. A receipt that failed for good does not block, except an Apple
subscription, which Apple keeps charging; an uncredited Play subscription is
refunded by Play.

A held Apple subscription record is keyed by its original transaction id,
so every renewal resolves to it. It kept the payment's back-off when a new
transaction arrived, and adopted any payment handed over, including a
revoked renewal, which the service refuses as receipt_invalid and so would
refuse the whole subscription.
A held Apple record now adopts a JWS only for another transaction with a
later purchaseDate and no revocationDate, read from the unverified payload,
and is then due at once with its retry delay and credit error cleared. A
re-delivered or re-signed copy changes nothing. A failed attempt writes its
back-off only if the record still holds the payment it sent.

A store account's purchases are listed on every device signed into it:
Play's purchase query lists active subscriptions for their whole life, and
Apple's Transaction.updates delivers auto-renewables made on other devices.
A hand-over with no record and an unknown echoed invoice made a new record
under the presenting profile, so another device could claim a buyer's
subscription for its own active profile, or repeat a refused request every
30 days after cleanup.
/_badge purchase now takes a `listed` mark, which the apps' sweeps and
purchase listeners send: it joins only a record this core already has for
the transaction or its echoed invoice, and otherwise records and sends
nothing (CRStoreReceiptNotRecorded). The purchase call and Restore hand over
unmarked, as before.

The service reads the store only once a subscription's paid coverage has
ended, so it never sees a cancellation while the period runs. The apps read
the device's store (StoreKit's renewal state, Play's isAutoRenewing) and
report it with /_badge subscription <state> <payment>, which records it on
the credited subscription purchase the payment resolves to and announces the
change to its owner.
A renewing report does not replace billingRetry or ended: Play lists a
subscription in its grace period with auto-renew on, and the service's next
answer clears billing retry once the charge lands.

The screens and alerts need to know whether a subscription renews, was
cancelled, waits for a charge, or ended, and the client dropped every state
the service sent but ended. It is now stored on the purchase: from the
answer to the first credit, and from a renewal answer only when the
asserted tip's coverage had ended, since while coverage runs the service
repeats what it read at the last renewal (a year old for an annual plan).
BadgeState gains `subscription` (the plan's months, from the latest charge
credit, and the state), and fills renewsAt/willRenew from it. A changed
state is announced with CEvtBadgeChanged. The column goes into the
unreleased M20260925 migration.
