exhaustion:
  status: 429
  body: '{"message":"Rate limit exceeded. Please wait before making more requests.","apiStatus":"failure","apiCode":429}'
  guidance: Wait at least x-geekflare-ratelimit-reset before retrying; exponential backoff with jitter recommended.
note: Rate limits cap requests per second per plan, not concurrent connections. Credit exhaustion is a separate 402 error.
