Mistral API returning “All models are temporarily rate-limited” even with moderate usage — is this expected?

Hi everyone,

I’m using the Mistral API through OpenClaw and also in harnesses like OpenCode and Kilo Code, and I keep running into this error:

I’ve already waited and retried several times, but the issue still persists.

What’s confusing to me is that I’m not using the API at a heavy scale — at most, this would be moderate usage. So I’m not sure whether I’m hitting an actual quota/rate limit, whether this is a temporary platform-side issue, or whether there’s something else going on.

Does anyone know if this is a known issue, or if there’s a way to check the real usage limits and diagnose what’s happening?

Any clarification would be appreciated.

Thanks!
