description: >-
  Prometeo does not publish specific numeric rate limits on its public
  documentation. Practical throughput on the Banking API is additionally bounded
  by upstream bank connections and by the asynchronous scrape/poll pattern
  (submit an operation, then poll a task/result endpoint). Production quotas are
  set per commercial agreement. Values are not reconciled in this artifact.
notes: >-
  No public rate-limit numbers were found; do not invent them. Confirm concrete
  per-product limits and any 429 semantics with Prometeo during onboarding /
  reconciliation.

responseCodes:
  throttled: 429
limits:
- name: Per-account request rate
  scope: account
  metric: requests
  limit: see provider / commercial agreement
  notes: Not published publicly; negotiated per production agreement.
- name: Banking upstream latency
  scope: session
  metric: requests
  limit: bounded by bank connection
  notes: >-
    Banking operations depend on live bank connections; long-running scrapes are
    resolved via an async task/result poll rather than a fixed synchronous quota.
policies:
- name: Asynchronous polling
  description: >-
    Long-running banking operations return a task handle; clients poll a
    task/result endpoint until completion rather than holding a synchronous
    connection.
- name: Backoff Strategy
  description: Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on 429.
