## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need packaging-industry-specific news from curated trade sources (Packaging Dive, Packaging News) with filtering by freshness and source. Prefer it over a general news search endpoint when the user's focus is specifically on packaging converters, sustainable packaging regulation, EPR compliance, brand owner packaging decisions, or packaging machinery — it delivers more relevant trade coverage than broad news aggregators.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow and no recent articles exist
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. malformed duration string) may return an error
- Source filter must match enum values exactly ('packagingdive' or 'packagingnews') or the parameter is rejected
- Limit exceeding 50 returns a validation error
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.005 per-call fee
