Rate Limits

Rate limits ensure cluster stability and prevent noisy-neighbor congestion. Limits apply at the workspace level across all active API keys.

Handling HTTP 429

When rate limits are breached, RenderNest responds with HTTP 429 Too Many Requests and a RATE_LIMITED error code. Client applications should implement exponential backoff with jitter before retrying.
