Errors

MCP errors

The public MCP speaks JSON-RPC. A limit looks like this. The Motion API's REST errors are listed on its own page.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": null,
  "error": { "code": -32000, "message": "rate_limit" }
}

HTTP

Public MCP rate limits return 429 with Retry-After. The app’s private media gateway returns 503 when its service is not configured or reachable. Jobs expose failure and cancellation in the workspace; an unsuccessful job never becomes a finished clip.

The Motion API has its own error bodies and status codes.

The Clipping API lists its error codes on its own page.
