Paging, limits and errors

Paging. Use limit (1–48, default 24) and offset (0–10000). List responses include total and nextOffset; keep following nextOffset until it is null.
Rate limit. About 120 requests every 60 seconds per client. Responses carry X-RateLimit-Remaining; going over returns 429 with a Retry-After header in seconds.
Caching. Successful responses may be cached for 5 minutes. Please cache rather than re-poll.
Errors. Every failure returns { "error": { "code", "message", "status" } }. Codes: invalid_request, not_found, rate_limited, service_unavailable.
Methods and origins. GET only, all origins allowed, no authentication. There are no write endpoints.

MCP server
