MCP

MCP rate limits and retry

Per OAuth access token tool RPM; map 429 and Retry-After into MCP errors.

Caps

MCP tools/call uses the same Ultra tool caps as the Tools API, scoped to the OAuth access token for that session (not a shared account pool):

LimitScopeCap
Tool readsEach OAuth access token60 / minute
Tool writesEach OAuth access token60 / minute

Active API tokens (liq_…) are capped at 10 per user (inventory for the Tools API, not MCP RPM). Failed Bearer authentications are limited to 20 / minute per client IP — see API errors & limits.

Over limit

Streamable HTTP may return 429 with Retry-After. JSON-RPC tools/call errors include retry guidance (retryAfterSeconds). Clients must back off.
