## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid input. A value past its maxLength gets this answer, & the message names the field & its limit. Bad input costs nothing, since it's refused before any read.
- `401`: Unauthenticated
- `402`: Payment required. MPP reads include `WWW-Authenticate`. Authenticated reads include balances, plus checkout when the key can open it. A key that reads only gets the account page instead. A failed request never creates checkout. A caller on a plan gets top-up only, plus `credits_renew_at` when the plan renews. Guest keys offer top-up.
- `403`: The API key is paused. Resume it at dashboard.xquik.com/api-keys & its next call goes through.
- `424`: Dependency unavailable, unauthorized, or limited. Default v1 uses 502. Best-practice responses use 424 for transparent dependency failures. Search answers 424 `search_unavailable` when X fails the query itself, or when a filtered search goes far back without a match. The message says how far back the search looked. "X can't run this search" appears only when it's true. Searches X can't run fail at once, with the fix. When X fails a read, Xquik answers 502 `x_api_unavailable` with `X-Xquik-Cause` & `Retry-After`. Retry after that many seconds.
- `429`: Too many requests right now. Each user gets 500 reads a second. Each minute allows 120 writes & 60 deletes. `x_api_rate_limited` means X limits this read for now. Neither answer costs anything. Wait for the seconds in `Retry-After`, then retry.
- `500`: Unexpected error.
- `502`: Dependency unavailable, unauthorized, or limited. Default v1 uses 502. Best-practice responses use 424 for transparent dependency failures. Search answers 424 `search_unavailable` when X fails the query itself, or when a filtered search goes far back without a match. The message says how far back the search looked. "X can't run this search" appears only when it's true. Searches X can't run fail at once, with the fix. When X fails a read, Xquik answers 502 `x_api_unavailable` with `X-Xquik-Cause` & `Retry-After`. Retry after that many seconds.
- `503`: Retry x_api_unavailable after Retry-After. With X-Xquik-Busy, retry until your deadline. Overload is announced with 503, `Retry-After` & a reason.
- `default`: Unexpected error.
