Rate limited too soon

I'm running the script locally like this:

yarn index example.com

 Done, here's the status of all 1189 pages:

•  Page with redirect: 2 pages
•  RateLimited: 506 pages
• ❌ Server error (5xx): 9 pages
• ❌ Alternate page with proper canonical tag: 1 pages
• ❌ Duplicate, Google chose different canonical than user: 108 pages

✨ Found 659 pages that can be indexed.

[... list of urls]

 Processing url: https://example.com/foo/bar
 Indexing already requested previously. It may take a few days for Google to process it.

 Processing url: https://example.com/foo/bar1
 Rate limit exceeded, try again later.

The rate limit exceeds after only around 100-120 urls, and if I rerun it starts from start and again aborts on rate limit aroudn 100-120 urls, so I'm not able to request index for all the URLs that come later.

What am I doing wrong?
