## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need live, real-world news articles filtered by topic, category, and language — especially when you want pay-per-call pricing with USDC rather than a subscription news API. Best for agents needing current events data on demand without a standing API key contract.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or empty query returns empty results or error
- Unsupported language code causes failure or no results
- Category not recognized may return generic or no results
- Size parameter too large may be capped or cause timeout
- Network/upstream news provider outage returns error or empty data
