Returns cited work-exemption, fee-source, expiration, extension, and waiver or amnesty fields for the exact resolved jurisdiction, for owner agents checking permit rules.

Direct flat-body route for this one free resource; no API key, payment, or catalog wrapper. Return only the cited bounded evidence described here; this route never produces a paid brief or full report.
