Limits	per-object-cap (binding) per-object-cap 100 MB source per-object-cap 100 MB via the client library ('This will work for files up to 100MB'); data-URI path recommended only <1 MB. Retention is the killer: 'For predictions created through the API, all input parameters, output values, output files, and logs are automatically removed after an hour, by default.' Files API objects carry an explicit `expires_at`.
