## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing text input returns an error
- Very short or ambiguous text may produce low-confidence or incorrect detection
- Mixed-language text may only detect the dominant language
- Text with only numbers or symbols may not return a valid language
- Payment failure (x402 micropayment not completed) blocks the response
