# Rate Limits

> Plan around API and MCP limits, timeouts, and throttled requests

## API

* Limit: `50` requests per `10` seconds.
* Keyed by IP address and endpoint.
* Request timeout: `60` seconds.

## MCP

* Limit: `50` requests per `10` seconds.
* Keyed by IP address and endpoint.
* Request timeout: `60` seconds.

When rate limited, clients should back off and retry later. The API may return:

```json theme={null}
{
  "code": "rate_limit_exceeded",
  "message": "Rate limit exceeded"
}
```
