Run 100 ad hook variants in one Sume Format bulk run

Sume Format bulk runs take 1-100 items with concurrency 1-16. What to put in each item, and what bulk runs do not offer: no queue webhook, no cancel-queue call.

A Format bulk run takes 1-100 items and runs them with a concurrency of 1-16. Use one item per hook variant. Per Format bulk runs, there is no public cancel-queue endpoint (cancel a child with POST /v1/format-runs/{run_id}/cancel), and no queue webhook, so plan for polling.

Limits

Same key with a different body returns 409 idempotency_conflict, so derive keys from the variant content.

Format bulk-run limits, from the Sume docs (read 2026-10-03).

Item design

Keep every item identical except the hook line. That keeps the test single-variable.

Credits

If credits run short, the run can fail with insufficient_credits; check Errors and credits before launching 100.
