Example prompt: What are the current UK weekly average road fuel prices — both petrol and diesel — in pence per litre, according to the official DESNZ government figures?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the official UK government-sourced weekly average road fuel prices (petrol and diesel in pence per litre) with minimal setup. It is ideal for agents that need authoritative, DESNZ-backed data rather than scraped or third-party estimates, and when a $0.01 USDC per-call micropayment via x402 is acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- DESNZ source unavailable — upstream government data feed is down or delayed, resulting in a service error or stale data
- Network timeout — the Cloudflare Worker fails to reach the DESNZ data source in time
- Payment failure — x402 micropayment of $0.01 USDC not completed, resulting in 402 Payment Required response
- Rate limiting — excessive calls may be throttled by the worker
