# bluesky.video.quota_exhausted

> The Bluesky account is out of daily video upload quota.

## What it checks

Before streaming the bytes, the publisher calls `app.bsky.video.getUploadLimits` on the video service. If `canUpload` comes back `false`, we fail loudly here instead of POSTing to `uploadVideo` and watching the job state flip to FAILED minutes later.

## Why

Bluesky enforces a per-user daily cap on video uploads + total bytes. The exact ceilings shift over time and aren't documented as constants — the upload-limits endpoint is the source of truth. Hitting the cap silently is one of the canonical opaque-failure patterns we built the preflight surface to avoid.

## Failure response

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "error": {
    "code": "preflight_failed",
    "rule": "bluesky.video.quota_exhausted",
    "platform": "bluesky",
    "message": "Daily video upload limit reached.",
    "remediation": "Bluesky enforces a per-user daily cap on video uploads + total bytes. Wait for the quota to reset or use a different account.",
    "platformResponse": {
      "canUpload": false,
      "remainingDailyVideos": 0,
      "remainingDailyBytes": 0
    }
  }
}
```

## Remediation

* Wait for the quota window to reset (rolling 24 h).
* Connect a different Bluesky account.
* Trim the post — text-only or image-only posts don't draw from the video quota.
