First-party UIs only. Answers the same 401 for an unknown user, a wrong password, a wrong site and a locked account — details.reason LOGIN_FAILED — so the route cannot be used to enumerate accounts. The access token is an ES256 JWT (15 min); the refresh token is opaque and rotates on every refresh. Not envelope-shaped (see the identity tag).Request body

UNAUTHENTICATED — missing or expired token.Show more
UNAUTHENTICATED — missing or expired token. Declared on every operation because `security` is declared globally at the document root: every route is authenticated, so every route can answer 401. - 405ApiErrorResponse

VALIDATION — the request body is larger than the surface's limit. Not retryable as sent: shrink the body. Declared on every operation that takes a request body. details carries exactly one key, maxBodyBytes (integer): the limit that applies to this surface, in bytes. - 414ApiErrorResponse

Counted in fixed windows (default 15 min).Show more
Counted in fixed windows (default 15 min). The signup, login, password and invite routes count every attempt per client address AND per subject (the email, the username + site, or the invite token). POST /v1/oauth/token is counted three ways, none of them on client_id alone, so knowing a client_id (which is not secret) never lets anyone spend its holder's budget: oauth-token counts every attempt per client address only; oauth-token-failure counts FAILED client authentications per client address and per (client address, client_id) pair; oauth-token-issued counts tokens issued per client_id only, and only a request whose secret, grant_type and scope all passed can spend it. details.reason says which limit tripped (CLIENT_RATE_LIMITED | SUBJECT_RATE_LIMITED) and details.action which count (signup | signup-verify | login | password-forgot | password-reset | invite-accept | oauth-token | oauth-token-failure | oauth-token-issued). Retry-After is whole seconds to the end of the window, and details.retryAfterMs mirrors it. The answer is the same whether or not the account or key exists, so the limit cannot be used to enumerate accounts, and nothing the caller sent is echoed. adds three counts per client address for the MCP grant routes: oauth-authorize (GET /v1/oauth/authorize, which may fetch a Client ID Metadata Document), oauth-register (POST /v1/oauth/register) and oauth-device (POST /v1/oauth/device_authorization), and one count per MCP grant, oauth-exchange-grant (the token exchange of POST /v1/oauth/token, counted per grant after the exchange client and the subject token verified, default 120 a minute), whose details.reason is EXCHANGE_RATE_LIMITED. - 500INTERNAL — a bug, and traceId is the support handle.ApiErrorResponse
