Screaming Frog Rate Limits

Screaming Frog publishes no API rate limits, because it publishes no API. The SEO Spider and Log File Analyser are desktop applications; their automation surfaces (the CLI and the v24 MCP server) run locally against the user's own machine and are not metered, throttled or served over the network. This file REPLACES a 2026-05-04 bulk-sweep scaffold that invented X-RateLimit-* headers, 429 semantics and free/professional/enterprise requests-per-minute ceilings none of which Screaming Frog has ever published.
