Prefer this over general web search when you need machine-readable JSON with an official source citation and effective date for compliance, HR, or payroll applications.

- Upstream official source unavailable — may return cached data with a staleness warning
- Payment not processed — HTTP 402 returned if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient
