}Insufficient credits
A metered request returns HTTP 402 with unit, amount_credits, balance_credits, and a billing URL. Retry after adding credits; the response is a balance gate, not a route failure.
Contributor earnings
Contributor attribution is tracked. Automatic conversion of every marketplace attribution into spendable account credits is not fully wired yet, so only treat earnings as spendable when they appear in earned_credits.
