Endpoint
GEThttps://thebotwire.com/scifilit/latestWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an agent needs curated, up-to-date science fiction and fantasy publishing news specifically from Reactor Magazine or Locus — the genre's trade publication of record. Prefer over general news APIs when the user's intent is SFF-specific (awards, book deals, genre criticism) rather than mainstream entertainment or general book news.
Side effects

- Invalid 'src' enum value causes request rejection
- 'since' parameter with unrecognized duration format returns error
- Rate limiting or upstream source unavailability may reduce freshness
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol) results in 402 response
