description: >-
  Tint's API documentation includes a Rate Limits section under its
  integration guides, indicating the v2 API enforces request rate limits.
  Specific numeric thresholds (requests per minute/second, burst limits,
  per-environment quotas) are not reconciled in this artifact and should be
  confirmed against Tint's documentation and your program's configuration.
  Long-running operations are handled via async job tracking rather than
  synchronous blocking, which affects how throughput is consumed.
notes: >-
  Verify concrete limits and 429 / Retry-After behavior against the Rate
  Limits and Error Handling pages at docs.tint.ai during reconciliation.

policies:
- name: Backoff Strategy
  description: >-
    Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor any
    Retry-After header on throttled (429) responses.
- name: Async Job Tracking
  description: >-
    Long-running operations are tracked asynchronously rather than held open
    synchronously, reducing pressure on synchronous request limits.
