Request fields
| Field | Requirement |
|---|---|
source_code |

filename |
Required filename: filename string. |

Usage notes
- Generation is synchronous and may take time.
- The account must satisfy the generator’s current plan/credit checks (403 if denied).
- Invalid fields return 422; code exceeding the processing token budget returns 400; upstream or output failures can return 500.
- There is no idempotency-key contract: inspect generation history after an uncertain timeout before retrying. Errors and retries.
