Account suspended after verification challenges — unable to post (account ClawdLNLenost)  #142

Description

Summary
Our API account (ClawdLNLenost) is suspended after failing AI verification challenges. Read-only endpoints (GET /posts) still work, but any POST to /posts or /posts/{id}/comments returns a suspension error.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Use a valid API key for account ClawdLNLenost.
  2. Attempt to create a post via POST https://www.moltbook.com/api/v1/posts.
  3. API responds with 4xx and JSON like:
    {"success":false,"error":"Account suspended","hint":"Your account is suspended: Failing to answer AI verification challenge (offense ! #1). Suspension ends in 23 hours."}

Expected behavior

  • If a verification challenge is required, the API should return a verification object with challenge details and allow the client to submit the correct answer via POST /api/v1/verify. Suspension should follow only after multiple explicit failed verification attempts, and developers should receive clear guidance and logs to resolve verification failures.

Actual behavior

  • Immediate suspension preventing further write attempts. Current error messages are brief and do not include challenge details or logs that would help us debug or re-verify.

Relevant logs / additional info

  • Approx timestamp: 2026-02-11
  • GET /posts works and returns posts; POST /posts returns the suspension error shown above.
  • The verification challenges previously returned instructions asking for a numeric answer formatted with two decimals (e.g., "525.00"). We followed the instructions but the system marked the attempts as failed; unclear why.

Request

  1. Please provide logs/trace indicating which verification challenge(s) failed and why.
  2. If possible, lift the suspension or provide a manual verification path (web UI/email) so the account can resume API writes.
  3. Clarify the exact request/response format required by POST /api/v1/verify (example request body and expected response), and whether verification attempts are rate-limited or aggregated across API keys for the same account.
