Rules:
- Send the request with a 2-second timeout.
- Parse the standard envelope { success, data, meta: { latency_ms, version } }.
- On failure, read { success: false, error, code } and branch on the code.
- Do not retry 4xx responses; surface the error code to the caller.
- Treat invalid-but-well-formed payloads as HTTP 200 with data.valid === false.Frequently Asked Questions & Technical Notes
