Rate Limits

The Mobbin API and MCP server use rate limiting to ensure fair usage and maintain service stability.

Limits

Scope Limit
MCP Per user 60 requests per 60 seconds
API Per workspace 60 requests per 60 seconds

Exceeding the Limit

When you exceed the rate limit, the server returns:

  • HTTP status 429 Too Many Requests
  • A Retry-After header indicating how many seconds to wait before retrying

Best Practices

  • Respect Retry-After: When you receive a 429, wait the indicated time before retrying.
  • Use exponential backoff: If retries continue to fail, increase wait time exponentially with jitter.
