Example prompt: Can you check the status of my the402.ai job with ID job_89c9f9efd9ba4ef5 and let me know if it has completed or what state it's currently in?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have previously submitted a job to the the402.ai marketplace and need to poll or check its completion state. Ideal for asynchronous workflows where you submitted a task (e.g., sentiment analysis, custom tool development) and need to retrieve results or verify completion before proceeding.

- Invalid job ID format returns validation error
- Job belongs to a different account or session — authorization error
- Platform unavailable or rate limit exceeded — 5xx error
- Payment of 0.001 USDC not processed — 402 payment required error
