Errors
Errors return an ok: false envelope. Rate limiting returns 429 with x-rate-limit-limit, x-rate-limit-remaining and x-rate-limit-reset headers. x-rate-limit-reset is the number of seconds until the window reopens. Retry-After is not sent, so schedule retries from x-rate-limit-reset; retrying sooner will fail again.
{ "ok": false, "message": "Unauthorized", "code": "UNAUTHORIZED" }
Rate limits for this version: enforced per endpoint; ceilings are not published and can change without notice. A 429 response carries x-rate-limit-limit, x-rate-limit-remaining, and x-rate-limit-reset (seconds until the window reopens). Back off from those headers rather than hardcoding numbers. If you need sustained throughput, prefer batching (operations like /createTask accept arrays) over tightening polling loops. See Rate limits.
