fix(evm): halve stream webhook validations and jitter init retries

[kaladinlight]

Follow-up to #1286.

Problem

Deploying the EVM services together rate limited them all on startup:

failed to initialize stream
[C0006] Request failed, Too Many Requests(429): Too many webhook validation requests. Please slow down.

This is a different limit from the one #1286 addressed. Creating a stream makes Moralis validate the webhookUrl, and that limit is shared across every coinstack on the account — so N services booting at once contend with each other.

Two things made it worse:

1. initializeStream called Moralis.Streams.add twice — once to get the existing stream, once to recreate it after the delete. Each creation spends a validation, so fix(evm): stop moralis stream address sync from exhausting rate limits #1286 doubled the cost per boot.
2. Retries were synchronized. Every service boots together, fails together, and retried on a flat 60s cadence with no jitter, so they kept colliding instead of draining. The constructor's failure path also didn't set a backoff, so the first retry landed 5s after boot for all of them at once.

Changes

• Look the existing stream up with getAll instead of creating it. getAll is a plain request, not a validation, so a boot now spends one validation instead of two. One page covers the handful of streams on the account, so there's no pagination loop.
• Jitter the retry backoff (interval/2 + random × interval, so ~30–90s) so services deployed together desynchronize within a round or two.
• Back off from a failed initializeStream too. The constructor path never reaches updateStream's catch, so a failed boot previously retried 5s later with no delay.

Notes

Recovery already worked before this — streamId stays unset, updateStream retries init at the top of its try, and it converges. This makes it converge quickly and quietly instead of via a thundering herd.

The address-add rate limit is untouched. This log is specific to webhook validation; there's no evidence yet that the 5-per-5-minutes address limit is also account-wide. If it is, it would show up as rateLimited: true on failed to update stream and the add interval would need scaling by the number of live coinstacks.

Testing

Typechecks clean. Not exercised against the live API — the deploy is the test, and the signal to watch is whether failed to initialize stream clears within a couple of retry rounds.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Moralis stream initialization removes an existing stream with the configured tag before creating a replacement. Initialization and update retries use randomized delays between half and one-and-a-half times the configured interval.

Changes

Moralis stream handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Existing stream replacement node/coinstacks/common/api/src/evm/moralisService.ts	Initialization lists existing EVM streams, removes a matching tagged stream, and then creates the configured stream.
Jittered retry scheduling node/coinstacks/common/api/src/evm/moralisService.ts	A jitter helper randomizes retry delays. Initialization and update failure retries use the helper.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 26125

The retry changes reduce startup contention, but stream replacement still deletes the active stream before confirming the replacement was created, so a failed request can interrupt webhook delivery. Merge should wait for this ordering issue to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A rabbit checks the stream tag,
Then clears the old one from the stack.
Jittered retries hop and sway,
From half to one-and-a-half their way.
A fresh stream starts the track.

lookup and Moralis.Streams.delete call so the active stream remains available
until the replacement has succeeded. Prefer Moralis.Streams.update for an
existing EVM stream; otherwise create the replacement first and delete the old
stream only after successful creation, while preserving the existing tag
matching behavior.
