⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Clarify the new HTTP response codes in the changeset description.

The description lacks specificity about what HTTP codes are now returned. Based on the PR objectives and summary, the endpoints should return 400 (and possibly other specific 40x codes) instead of 200, but this is not clear from the current text.

🔎 Suggested improvement 
-Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` in case of internal errors
+Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` from 200 to appropriate error codes (400+) in case of internal errors

Or, if more specificity is needed:

-Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` in case of internal errors
+Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` from 200 to 400/429 in case of internal/rate-limit errors

This will make the changelog entry clearer for users reviewing release notes.

📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Suggested change
Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` in case of internal errors
Changes the HTTP code of `/api/v1/method.call` and `/api/v1/method.callAnon` from 200 to appropriate error codes (400+) in case of internal errors
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents 
In .changeset/long-swans-sin.md around line 5, the changeset message is vague
about which HTTP status codes the /api/v1/method.call and
/api/v1/method.callAnon endpoints now return; update the single-line description
to explicitly list the new status codes (e.g., "Return 400 Bad Request for
client-side validation errors instead of 200; preserve/return other appropriate
4xx codes for specific client errors") or provide a short table of endpoint ->
status mapping, and include a brief example of the most common replacement (200
-> 400) so release readers know the precise behavior change.
