## Request

The feed the live record trades, served to your agent: per-name structural stops, targets, conviction, lanes, plus a served candidates[] entry pool (a read-time join of READY picks and day-board grades — an empty list means the discipline is working, not an outage). Refreshed about every 5 minutes in market hours. Payload carries field_notes, timestamps_note and freshness.is_stale so an agent never has to guess at the vocabulary or do clock math. Subscription only — never sold per-call over x402. Engine fields include coil_score / coil_kind (compression or held post-catalyst) since 2026-09-03.
