## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need keyless, pay-per-call access to the openFDA food recalls dataset without managing API keys or quotas. It is ideal for AI agents in pharma, food safety, health research, or regulatory compliance that need structured FDA recall data on demand. Prefer this over direct openFDA calls when operating in an x402 micropayment context or when you want a managed proxy with predictable per-call pricing.

## Known failure modes

- No matching records found for the search expression — returns empty result set
- Malformed or unsupported search expression syntax — may return error or empty results
- openFDA upstream API unavailable or rate-limited — proxy may return a degraded or error response
- Overly broad search returning truncated result sets due to dataset limits
- Payment failure via x402 protocol — call not executed
