  Gopuff has not published documented request-rate, concurrency, or quota limits for the Powered by
  Gopuff Fulfillment API. The partner Developer Portal currently lists the API Reference as "coming
  soon", so any limits applied at the edge are negotiated as part of the per-partnership agreement.
  This file is a placeholder noting that absence; clients should implement defensive backoff on any
  HTTP 429 or 5xx responses returned by fulfillment-api-eus.partners.gopuff.com.
