client.get_all_notes() delegates to tools.concurrent_get(), which first
fires a with_count=True, limit=1 probe and unpacks response.json()['count'].
Against api2.openreview.net the notes response for this query carries no
'count' field (observed 2026-08-05 with openreview-py 1.27.3), so the
script crashes at startup:
File ".../openreview/api/client.py", line 1024, in get_notes
return notes, response.json()['count']
KeyError: 'count'
Replace the call with plain offset pagination via client.get_notes(),
which needs no count probe. Behaviour is otherwise identical; verified
against a live author profile (returns the correct submission list).

Problem
src/coauthor_counts.pycrashes at startup for (at least some) authors:client.get_all_notes()delegates totools.concurrent_get(), which first fires awith_count=True, limit=1probe and unconditionally unpacksresponse.json()['count']. Againstapi2.openreview.net, the notes response for thecontent={'authorids': ...}query returns nocountfield, so the probe raises before any submission is fetched. Observed 2026-08-05 with openreview-py 1.27.3 (current PyPI release at the time).Fix
Replace the
get_all_notes()call with a small local helper that paginates via plainclient.get_notes(offset=..., limit=1000, ...)— no count probe needed; the loop terminates when a batch comes back short. No other behaviour changes.Verification
Run against a live author profile with one 2026 TMLR submission; before the patch the script crashes as above, after it prints the expected output:
With the quota policy now counting desk-rejected and withdrawn submissions, this script is the only self-serve way for authors to audit their year — worth keeping runnable on the current openreview-py.
