Common to every endpoint

Any route can answer these: a missing or wrong key, no credits left, the platform not answering, or a failure on our side. None of them costs credits.

  "message": "Invalid API key"
}

04Notes

15 replies per page in `comments`; pass `cursor` back while `has_more` is true. A comment without replies is an empty list for 0 credits. An unknown comment is a free 404; a non-numeric `comment_id` or a URL that is not a post is a free 400. This route can briefly answer a free 503 when it is temporarily unavailable.
