Execution Flow

Step 1: Get Subscription Details

stripe.get_subscription({
  customer_id: "{customer_id}",
  expand: ["items.data.price.product"]
})

Step 2: Retrieve Current Entitlements

entitlements.get({
  account_id: "{account_id}",
  include: ["features", "limits", "overrides", "trials"]
})

Step 3: Check Feature Usage

analytics.feature_usage({
  account_id: "{account_id}",
  features: ["api_calls", "storage", "team_members"],
  period: "current_billing_cycle"
})

Step 4: Update Entitlements (if action = grant/revoke)

entitlements.update({
  account_id: "{account_id}",
  action: "{action}",
  feature_id: "{feature_id}",
  reason: "{reason}",
  expires_at: "{expiry_date}"
})

Step 5: Notify User (if limit reached)

messaging.send_notification({
  type: "in_app",
  account_id: "{account_id}",
  template: "limit_reached",
  variables: {
    feature: "{feature_name}",
    current: "{current_usage}",
    limit: "{limit}",
    upgrade_link: "{upgrade_url}"
  }
})

Guardrails

• Entitlement checks must be idempotent and stateless
• Cache entitlements with short TTL (< 60s) for performance
• Log all access decisions for audit trail
• Never hard-block if unsure - soft-limit with alert
• Grace period for limit overages (10% buffer)
• Grandfather existing features on plan changes
• Alert engineering if latency exceeds threshold
