## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic, pay-per-request access to live SAM.gov federal contract opportunities without registering for an API key or account. Ideal for agents automating government procurement monitoring, BD pipelines, or one-off opportunity searches where ephemeral, deterministic results per notice are sufficient.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if query terms are too broad or niche with no matching notices
- SAM.gov data lag if federal source has not updated recently
- Malformed or missing fields if SAM.gov notice data is incomplete
- Payment failure if USDC balance or x402 payment is insufficient
