      summary: Get Lighter order book history
      description: 'Get historical order book snapshots within a time range with configurable resolution. Checkpoint history starts January 29, 2026; 30s/10s/1s start January 30, 2026. Use ''granularity'' parameter to control data resolution.


        **Tick-Level Data:**

        When `granularity=tick`, the response format changes. Instead of returning snapshots in the `data` array, it returns:

        - `checkpoint`: Full orderbook state at the start of the time range

        - `deltas`: Array of incremental changes to apply to the checkpoint


        This is the most efficient format for reconstructing high-frequency orderbook states. Use the SDK''s `OrderBookReconstructor` class for client-side reconstruction.'
