# CONTENT_REJECTED

The site was not published.

- **HTTP class:** 422
- **Retryable:** no (yes for `checks_unavailable`)

## What happened

The automatic content check stopped the publish. A house rule (a fixable technical rule) comes with its rule, path, line and fix in `filter.reasons`; a judgement call names only a content-policy category; the category `checks_unavailable` means the check itself couldn't finish and nothing was judged.

## Fix

House rule: apply the fix and deploy again with the same `deploy_id`. `checks_unavailable` (retryable): call again with the same `deploy_id` after `error.retry_after_seconds`. Judgement call: don't reword, split or disguise the content to get past the check.

## What to tell the user

For a judgement call: the site wasn't published because it may break the [content policy](https://carnival-staging.dev/content-policy), and they can appeal at support@carnival.dev with the `request_id`.

## Agent hint

The exact `error.hint` text; Carnival fills each `<…>` for the call.

House rule:

```text
The site breaks a Carnival house rule. Apply the fix in filter.reasons and deploy again with the same deploy_id.
```

Judgement call (category in place of `<category>`):

```text
Not published: the site may break the content policy (<category>). Don't work around the check; the user can appeal at support@carnival.dev with the request_id.
```

`checks_unavailable`:

```text
Carnival could not finish checking the site, so it was not published. Nothing needs to change: call carnival_deploy again with the same deploy_id in about 60 seconds.
```
