Too many requests

What happened

The token exceeded its request budget. The response carries Retry-After.

What to do

Wait for Retry-After seconds. Do not retry in a tight loop.

The response body carries a recovery object with the same guidance in machine-readable form: recovery.action names the call to make next, and recovery.hint is one sentence a model can act on. Not every code carries one — a 401, for instance, has nothing to recover to but a valid token.
