  Flint DOCUMENTS that the Agent Tasks API is rate limited and that exceeding
  the limit returns 429 Too Many Requests, but publishes NO number, NO window,
  NO scope and NO response headers. Its rate-limiting section is one sentence:
  "These endpoints are rate limited. If you exceed the limit, you'll receive a
  429 Too Many Requests response." An integrator cannot compute a safe request
  rate or a backoff from what is published, and no RateLimit-*/X-RateLimit-*
  header contract is described anywhere in the reference. Limits could not be
  observed live because every endpoint requires a bearer API key (no
  unauthenticated response to read headers from).

  note: >-
    No rate-limit response headers are documented. Unauthenticated probes of
    https://app.tryflint.com/api/v1/agent/tasks cannot be used to observe them
    without a key, so `observed` is empty rather than absent.
documented_request_constraints:
  - constraint: items array on a generate_pages task
    value: 1-10 items per task
    source: https://www.flint.com/docs/api
    note: A hard per-request payload cap, distinct from a rate limit.
  - constraint: callbackUrl
    value: must be an HTTPS URL

  observed_guidance: >-
    Flint's own agent skill (github.com/tryflint/claude-code-plugin
    skills/edit-site/SKILL.md) tells clients to wait 90-120 seconds between
    status checks, states a single agent typically finishes in 4-5 minutes, and
    warns that ~10 concurrent agents may take ~15 minutes. This is polling and
    concurrency guidance published by Flint, not a rate limit, but it is the
    only quantitative pacing advice the provider gives.

economic_limit:
  model: credits
  detail: >-
    The binding quota on Flint's API is economic, not temporal: Free = 160
    credits/month, Starter = 12,000 credits/year, and page generation costs
    ~60-250 credits per page. See plans/flint-plans-pricing.yml.
