note: 'CarCutter publishes no rate limits. The OpenAPI declares no 429 response on any of its 14
  operations and no RateLimit-*, X-RateLimit-* or Retry-After header. Two live responses were
  inspected on 2026-08-25 — a 400 from the keyless demo composition endpoint and a 401 from
  /vehicle/status — and neither carried any rate-limit header; only nginx and CloudFront
  infrastructure headers were present. An agent has no runtime signal to back off on.'

  retry_after: false
  note: 'This is a commercial credit balance, not a rate limit — it does not reset on a window and
    carries no Retry-After. It is recorded here because it is the only throttling-shaped response
    the contract documents.'
throughput_guidance:
  published: false
  note: 'The contract offers a processing_speed parameter (normal | lazy) that lets the caller trade
    latency for cost, but publishes no requests-per-second guidance.'
