## Run it

2. Run it: MCP proxy_call with that proxy_route and the input JSON (apifare-mcp over stdio), or POST the proxy_route over HTTP with the input JSON as the body and the same Authorization header.
3. On HTTP 402, relay the body's human_readable field to your human verbatim, wait, then retry the same call. Every other error and its fix: https://apifare.com/errors.md
