GAS_OVERPROVISIONED

The gas limit is far above what simulation says the transaction needs.

HTTP status422
GroupRelay path
RetryableNo — sending it again changes nothing
Re-signNONE — do not ask the user to sign anything

What happened​

Relay Units are charged on the worst case, so a wildly over-declared limit would reserve quota (and relayer exposure) that cannot be used.

What to do​

Set gasLimit close to the simulated cost — the endpoint accepts up to 1.9× the simulated processing gas above movement gas.

Extra members​

This code carries limit, actual in the problem document, on top of the common members.
