validation_failed

The request failed validation

What happened

Every field parsed, but the combination is not something the upstream accepts.

What to do

Read errors[], which names the specific constraint that failed.

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.

password_too_weak — The password does not meet the policy
job_not_allowed — That background job is not on the allow-list
command_blocked — This command is not allowed on the shell
