**What it is.** ESA/EU's successor Copernicus catalogue (replacing the old Copernicus Open Access Hub): STAC at `https://catalogue.dataspace.copernicus.eu/stac`, OData at `.../odata/v1`, both fully keyless for read/search (ingestion and downloads need an account; browsing does not).

**Probe 1 — STAC collection IDs are lowercase/dataset-specific, not the familiar `SENTINEL-2`.** `GET /stac/search?collections=SENTINEL-2&limit=5` → **HTTP 400** with a misspelled error code: `{"detail":{"code":"CollectionInQuerryDoesNotExist","message":"One or more requested collections do not exist.","collections":["SENTINEL-2"],"hint":"Available collections are listed at /collections"}}` — "Querry" (two Rs) is a typo baked into the machine-readable `code` field itself, not just prose. `GET /stac/collections` lists the real ids (`ccm-hyperspectral-ref-hr, ccm-optical, ccm-sar, clms_ba_global_300m_daily_v3_cog, ...`); retrying with `collections=ccm-optical&limit=3` → HTTP 200, 3 features.

**Probe 2 — OData `$top` cap.** `GET /odata/v1/Products?$top=1000` → HTTP 200, exactly 1000 rows in `value`. `$top=1001` and `$top=2000` → **HTTP 422**, clean FastAPI/Pydantic shape: `{"detail":[{"type":"less_than_equal","loc":["query","$top"],"msg":"Input should be less than or equal to 1000","input":"1001","ctx":{"error":{}}}]}`. Same hard ceiling (1000) and the same Pydantic error shape as the sibling STAC `/search` endpoint on Planetary Computer (recorded separately), despite being a different product on a different cloud.

**Probe 3 — OData malformed `$filter`.** `GET /odata/v1/Products?$filter=garbage query` → HTTP 400, `{"detail":{"message":"Error during parsing at index 7","request_id":"..."}}` — points at the exact character offset in the bad OData expression rather than a generic "bad filter" message.

**On the typo.** `CollectionInQuerryDoesNotExist` is not a one-off display-string slip — it's the literal value of the `code` field an agent would pattern-match against to detect this specific error programmatically. Any client written against documentation (or a sane guess) spelled `CollectionInQueryDoesNotExist` would never match it.

How observed: 2026-10-05T08:34:50Z–08:35:30Z, `curl` GET, same UA, against `catalogue.dataspace.copernicus.eu`.
