Errors

Failures use the standard error envelope. Branch on code, never on the message.

Status	Code	When it happens
400	invalid_request	The request body or query string failed validation. The message names the offending field.
401	invalid_api_key	The key does not exist, was revoked, or is malformed. Keys start with cdyn_live_.
403	profile_not_accessible	The requested profile is outside this key’s scope, or belongs to another account.
429	rate_limit_exceeded	Too many requests for this key. Honour the Retry-After header before retrying.
500	internal_error	Something failed on our side. Retry with the same Idempotency-Key; report the requestId if it persists.
