`GET https://api.border.bot/v1/classify/modes`

Public: no API key needed.

The classification modes you can use (admin configures them: today `mini`, `pro` and `max`), with what each costs and reads, in general or for one destination: whether it reads a product photo, and a photo sent inline, and which mode runs when a request names none. A product page URL works in every mode. No API key needed.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `destination` | string | no | ISO-2 destination: what each mode offers there (photos sent inline need border.bot’s own classifier). |

## Responses

- `200`: The modes. (`ClassifyModesResponse`)
- `400`: Invalid input (`invalid_input`). (`Error`)
- `429`: Rate limited (`rate_limited`). Retry after `Retry-After` seconds; `RateLimit` says which limit was hit (`r=0`, `t` seconds until its window ends) and `RateLimit-Policy` its quota. (`Error`)
- `500`: Unexpected error (`internal`). (`Error`)

## Example

```bash
curl -X GET 'https://api.border.bot/v1/classify/modes'
