Every error has the same shape — a machine-readable code, a message, and an errors[] array that's empty when there's nothing field-specific to report. The HTTP status is authoritative.

400 Bad Request	bad_request	The request body or parameters failed validation. errors[] names the offending fields.
401 Unauthorized	unauthorized	The access token is missing, malformed or expired.
403 Forbidden	forbidden	The request references a resource outside the token's organisation or clinic scope.
