Rate limit. criterion_breakdown adds a light model call on top of the Handbook-grounded scaffold, so it is capped at 25 calls per IP per 24 hours. The deterministic scaffold still returns if the model call fails. When the cap trips, the JSON-RPC error includes data.rate_limited=true and data.window_hours.
