| `items` | `array` | 3 items |
| `next_cursor` | `string` | [redacted:token]+Gy1+HFGDIg= |

## 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.
