  Tripo3D uses async task-based REST: submit a task and poll for completion. HTTP RPS limits
  are not publicly documented; quotas are bounded by account credit balance and
  concurrent-task caps tied to the Platform plan tier.
notes: Verify task concurrency cap with Tripo support for production volumes.
