## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or recent US federal regulatory content from the Federal Register, especially for compliance monitoring, policy tracking, or regulatory intelligence workflows. It is preferable to scraping federalregister.gov directly because it is structured, searchable, filterable by type and freshness, and payable per-call at low cost. Best for agents that need to surface new rulemakings quickly without parsing raw government XML feeds.

## Known failure modes

- No matching results for narrow keyword queries or rare document types
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment is not processed
- Invalid 'since' format causing parameter rejection
- Type filter mismatch if an unsupported enum value is passed
- Stale results if the Federal Register has not published new items in the requested window
