Example prompt: What are the current best DeFi yield farming opportunities and APY rates across major protocols so I can decide where to allocate my stablecoin holdings?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-request DeFi yield data without committing to a subscription API. Best suited for agents performing occasional yield lookups or opportunity scans across DeFi protocols, especially when USDC micropayment billing on Base chain is already part of your workflow.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing input parameters return a generic error response
- Upstream DeFi data source downtime may return stale or empty results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in HTTP 402
- Unsupported protocol or token pair may return empty data set
- Network congestion on Base chain may delay payment processing
