 - Each tool returns the library's **direct result** under `structuredContent.data` (and the same value as pretty-printed JSON text). For example `microlink_markdown` → `{ data: "# Title\n..." }`, `microlink_screenshot` → `{ data: { url, type, width, height, size } }`, `microlink_links` → `{ data: ["https://...", ...] }`.
-- On failure the tool sets MCP `isError` and returns `{ error: { message, code?, status?, statusCode?, url?, more? } }`. A `429` also includes a free-quota `hint`.
+- On failure the tool sets MCP `isError` and returns `{ error: { message, code?, status?, statusCode?, url?, more?, details? } }`, where `message` carries the specific cause reported by the API. Capability errors that retrying cannot fix (for example `EPROXYNEEDED` or `EINTEGRATION`) also include machine-readable `reason` (`upgrade_required`), `capability`, an `upgrade` object with the plan and pricing URL, and an agent-facing `hint` with the next step. A `429` includes `reason: "quota_exceeded"` and a free-quota `hint`.
