Limits

ClinicalTrials.gov publishes no rate limits that could be read; the profile records that absence rather than inventing a ceiling.
ClinicalTrials.gov publishes NO rate limits for the Data API v2. The developer pages state no request ceiling, no burst allowance and no throttling policy, and the live API returns no rate-limit headers at all. An agent therefore has no runtime signal telling it when it is close to being throttled and no documented status code to expect on exhaustion — it can only discover a limit by hitting one. Recorded as an honest zero.
