+# Circuit Breaker HalfOpen State with Rate-Limited Probe - Implementation Complete
+
+## Completed Steps
+
+### Step 1: Enhance `circuit_breaker.rs` ✅
+- [x] Added `probe_request()` - Primary entry-point for half-open probe admission with cooldown + quota check
+- [x] Added `half_open_probe_success()` - Records successful probe, increments `HalfOpenWindow.completed`, delegates to `record_success()`
+- [x] Added `half_open_probe_failure()` - Records failed probe, increments `HalfOpenWindow.failures`, delegates to `record_failure()`
+- [x] Added `reset_half_open_window()` - Cleans up temporary window data after state transitions
+
+### Step 2: Update `graceful_degradation.rs` ✅
+- [x] Added `probe_oracle_with_circuit_breaker()` - Integrates circuit breaker probe with oracle health checks
+  - Flow: `probe_request()` → oracle health check → `half_open_probe_success()` / `half_open_probe_failure()`
+  - Returns `OracleHealth::Working` on success, `OracleHealth::Degraded` on failure, `OracleHealth::Broken` if probe rejected
+
+### Step 3: Comprehensive Tests ✅
+- [x] `test_probe_request_admitted_within_quota` - Rate-limited probe admitted when quota is available
+- [x] `test_probe_request_rejected_when_quota_exhausted` - Probe rejects when quota exhausted, closes circuit (0 failures)
+- [x] `test_probe_request_cooldown_enforcement` - Cooldown enforcement before probes are counted
+- [x] `test_probe_request_not_half_open` - Returns false when breaker is not in HalfOpen (Closed/Open)
+- [x] `test_half_open_probe_success_tracks_completion` - Tracks completed counter, auto-closes after threshold
+- [x] `test_half_open_probe_failure_reopens_circuit` - Tracks failure counter, re-opens breaker immediately
+- [x] `test_probe_request_quota_window_resets` - Quota window resets after evaluation_window_s passes
+- [x] `test_quota_exhausted_with_failures_reopens` - Quota exhausted with failures re-opens circuit
+- [x] `test_probe_oracle_with_circuit_breaker_integration` - Full integration with graceful degradation oracle probe
+
+## Summary
+
+The implementation enhances the circuit breaker's half-open state with:
+1. **Rate-limited probe admission** via `probe_request()` integrating cooldown enforcement and quota-based scheduling
+2. **Explicit probe tracking** via `half_open_probe_success()` and `half_open_probe_failure()` that update the `HalfOpenWindow` counters
+3. **Graceful degradation integration** via `probe_oracle_with_circuit_breaker()` that orchestrates the full probe lifecycle
+4. **Cleanup** via `reset_half_open_window()` for state transitions
