Example prompt: What's the current gas price and EIP-1559 base fee on Ethereum right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, real-time read of current gas prices and EIP-1559 base fees on Ethereum or Base without running your own node. Ideal for pre-transaction cost estimation, fee monitoring, or automated agents that need on-chain gas data. At $0.001 per call, it is cost-effective for frequent polling or single lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported chain value returns validation error
- Network connectivity issues to the target chain RPC may cause timeouts
- Missing or invalid 'chain' field returns a 400-level error
- Stale data if block finalization is delayed
