  Rate limiting demonstrably exists — all 151 operations declare a 429 response
  with the description "Too Many Requests. You have exceeded the rate limit. Try
  again later." — but no number, window, scope or response header is published
  anywhere, and there is no developer documentation to read one from. An agent
  gets a status code and nothing else: no RateLimit-*, X-RateLimit-* or
  Retry-After header is declared in the specification, and none was observed on
  live unauthenticated responses from api-ads.robot.com.
