Rate Limits & Agent Safety
Bluesky / AT Protocol enforces soft rate limits per 5-minute window:
| Endpoint | Limit | Notes |
|----------|-------|-------|
| createRecord (post, reply, like, repost) | ~300 / 5 min | Soft limit, may vary by account age |
| searchPosts | ~600 / 5 min | |
| getTimeline | ~1,000 / 5 min | |
| getProfile | ~1,000 / 5 min | |
| General per-account | ~2,000–5,000 / 5 min | Depends on account reputation |
Idempotency note: Bluesky does not deduplicate identical posts. Posting the same text twice creates two records. If your agent retries on timeout, use get_user_feed to check whether the post already exists before retrying.
Token refresh: The server automatically refreshes expired sessions (401/ExpiredToken) — no manual intervention needed.
