## 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.

## Usage Examples

**Engage with your community:**
> "Search Bluesky for posts about 'AI project management' and like the most relevant ones"

**Post an update:**
> "Post on Bluesky: We just launched real-time AI collaboration on is.team! Your AI teammates can now join standups."

**Monitor your feed:**
> "Check my Bluesky notifications and reply to any mentions"
