DOCTRINE_LIMIT_REACHED

HTTP 409

Something about the request must change

The account or project doctrine level is at its 24-node cap.

How to fix it (contract guidance)

POST /api/doctrine with the successor slug and supersedes naming the current slug to retire.

Observed recovery

Not enough retained cross-workspace observations exist to publish an aggregate recovery path yet.

Publication requires at least 3 distinct workspaces. This is withheld data, not evidence that no recovery happened.
