Example prompt: Can you check whether my the402.ai job job_27e40d2b3ccc4130 has finished yet and tell me the result?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have already submitted a job to the the402.ai platform and need to poll or retrieve its current status or result. This is the correct endpoint for async job tracking on the402.ai specifically, as opposed to initiating a new job or verifying payment release.

## Known failure modes

- Job ID not found — returns 404 if the job ID does not exist or is not accessible
- Invalid job ID format — malformed job ID returns 400 bad request
- Unauthorized — missing or invalid payment/auth header returns 401 or 402
- Job still pending — status is returned but result may be empty if job has not completed
- Network or server error — returns 500 if the platform is temporarily unavailable
