Rate limit tiers

Exceeding the limit returns 429 Too Many Requests.

Repeated 429 responses within a short window may trigger a temporary IP-level block. Implement exponential back-off in your client.

Every API response includes rate limit headers:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 300
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 247
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1708876800

Use X-RateLimit-Remaining to throttle your requests proactively, and X-RateLimit-Reset (Unix timestamp) to know when the window resets.
