Example prompt: Pull the latest manufacturing and industrial automation news from thebotwire — give me up to 20 results from the past 24 hours, focusing on reshoring and plant investment.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need curated, real-time manufacturing-specific news (automation, reshoring, plant investment, industrial policy) from vetted industry sources. Prefer it over general news APIs when the agent context is industrial automation, plant engineering, or reshoring/site-selection. Use the 'src' filter to narrow to specific source types and 'since' to control freshness for monitoring workflows.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for the given query or freshness window — returns empty list
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. typo in duration string) may return an error
- Invalid 'src' enum value returns a validation error
- Rate limiting or payment failure results in 402 response
- Limit value outside 1-50 range returns a validation error

## How this service works

## Output

A list of manufacturing news items (up to 50 per call, default 10), each likely containing a headline, summary, source, and publication timestamp, filtered optionally by source (manufacturingd or plantengineeri), keyword search query, and freshness window.
