Successful output is returned in `results[0].data`.

Raw platform output is intentionally open-ended and may evolve with the upstream source.

### Illustrative sample output

This example shows one response. Values and optional fields vary with the data available.

}

### Illustrative output fields

Derived from the sample above for orientation only. These fields are not a fixed response schema.

| Path | Observed type | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `depth_requested` | `integer` | 25 |
| `depth_used` | `integer` | 0 |
| `thread` | `object` | 1 fields |
| `thread.post` | `object` | 6 fields |

## Execution behavior

A `200` response completed inline. A `202` response was queued; poll `GET /jobs/{id}` until the job reaches `completed` or `failed`. Use an `Idempotency-Key` when retrying must not create a duplicate logical job.
