Known gotchas
The free key is rate-limited to 1,000 requests/hour, and a single query is capped at roughly 5,000 total records across 20 pages — bulk pulls need explicit pagination handling.
Docket contents reflect rulemaking history, not the current codified rule — cross-check any requirement against the live 1926.1427 text on osha.gov before relying on it operationally.
