Get the monthly plan

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `data` | `object` |  |
| `data.cancel_at_period_end` | `boolean` | Whether it ends at current_period_end instead of renewing. Monthly credits end with it; pack and top-up credits stay. |
| `data.current_period_end` | `string` (date-time) or `null` | When this month's credits end and the plan renews, or ends: RFC 3339 UTC; null without a monthly plan. |
| `data.id` | `string` or `null` | Subscription ID (sub_…); null without a monthly plan. |
| `data.monthly_credits` | `integer` | Credits the plan adds at each renewal; 0 without a monthly plan. |
| `data.monthly_credits_remaining` | `integer` | How much of the balance is monthly credits: requests spend these first, and what is left of them ends at the next renewal. The rest of the balance never expires. |
| `data.next_plan` | `string` or `null` | The plan it changes to at the next renewal, after a downgrade; null when it stays on plan. |
| `data.notice` | `string` or `null` | What a person should know about the plan change just made, in a sentence to show them: its renewal is also being charged, say, or auto top-up's monthly cap is now below the top-up's price. Null otherwise, and on every read. |
| `data.object` | `string` | Always subscription.<br>One of `subscription` |
| `data.payment_url` | `string` or `null` | Set when a plan change could not be paid yet (the card was declined, or the bank asks the cardholder to confirm): pay here within a day and the change applies. Null otherwise. |
| `data.plan` | `string` | The plan paid for now (catalog plan ID); payg without a monthly plan. |
| `data.status` | `string` | none (pay as you go), incomplete (the first payment is not through yet), active, past_due (the last renewal failed: Stripe retries it, and no new credits arrive until it is paid) or unpaid (the retries ended without payment).<br>One of `none`, `incomplete`, `active`, `past_due`, `unpaid` |
| `data.top_up_pack` | `string` or `null` | The credit pack this plan's subscribers can top up with when they run out (catalog pack ID, also for auto top-up); null without a monthly plan. |
| `meta` | `object` | The shared route meta (see the API reference introduction). |

### 400

400 Bad Request.

| Code | HTTP | Retry | Meaning | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `invalid_input` | 400 | No | A parameter is missing or malformed, or the link is not one this endpoint takes. | Fix the parameter named in param as the message says. For a link of the wrong kind, call an endpoint listed in details.endpoints, when there is one. |

### 401

401 Unauthorized.

| Code | HTTP | Retry | Meaning | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `unauthorized` | 401 | No | The x-api-key header is missing, or its key is unknown or revoked. On the dashboard's routes: the session cookie is missing or expired. | Send a valid API key in the x-api-key header. No key yet? A person gets one at details.signup_url; an AI agent follows details.agent_auth_url. |

### 403

403 Forbidden.

| Code | HTTP | Retry | Meaning | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `forbidden` | 403 | No | The API key is valid but may not make this request, and details.reason says why: the account is suspended, the key lacks the route's scope, waits for its owner to confirm it by email, has expired, or was used from an IP outside its allowlist, or a rotated key's previous secret was used for a call that needs the admin scope. A running job stops with it too when its account is suspended or the key that created it is revoked or expires. It is about the key, never the item: a private item is private_or_unavailable, also 403, so branch on the code. | Act on details.reason. suspended: contact [support](mailto:support@socialtap.dev). scope: use a key with details.required_scope. previous_secret: use the new secret. key_pending: have the owner open the emailed link. key_expired or key_revoked: create a new key. ip_not_allowed: call from an allowed IP. |

### 429

429 Too Many Requests.

| Code | HTTP | Retry | Meaning | What to do |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `rate_limited` | 429 | Yes, later | The account passed its runaway-protection ceiling: a high per-account limit that stops a broken client loop (plans have no rate limit). Requests without an API key (signup, the MCP server's tool listing and find_endpoint) are limited per IP address instead. It also stops an account whose failed requests in the last hour cost far more than its successful ones paid for: failures are free within a limit (the message says so), and successes raise it. | Wait the seconds in the retry-after header, then retry. If your steady traffic needs more, ask [support](mailto:support@socialtap.dev) to raise the ceiling; without an API key, send one. |
