Example prompt: Can you pull up the Channel3 category details for the slug 'laptops' — I want to see the full category metadata including any raw fields?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a specific Channel3 category slug and need full category detail, rather than searching across categories. Prefer this over the category search endpoint when you already know the exact slug identifier.

## Known failure modes

- Slug not found — returns 404 or empty result
- Missing required slug parameter — returns validation error
- Invalid slug format (empty string) — rejected by schema validation
- Upstream Channel3 API unavailable — returns 5xx error
- Payment not settled — x402 payment required error
