  x-guidance: 'Pay-per-call REST API for AI agents — hundreds of endpoints returning ground-truth data (US public records, company & legal identifiers, finance/SEC, crypto/web3, security & CVEs, medical codes, weather & geocoding, agriculture, energy, maritime, music, and more). Every endpoint is paid per call in USDC via x402 (Base or Solana) — no API key, no signup. Call any endpoint with no auth to get a 402 PaymentRequirements envelope, sign it (EIP-3009 on Base, partial SPL transfer on Solana), and retry with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. Add ?trial=1 for one free real call per endpoint per hour to test before paying. To discover the right endpoint: GET https://2s.io/api/directory for the full catalog, or GET https://2s.io/api/search/endpoints?q=<natural-language task> for a ranked match. Per-call price is on each operation as x-payment-info (from $0.001). Batch up to 50 calls behind one payment via POST https://2s.io/api/batch/run.'

      summary: Live flight status and tracking
      description: Live flight status and tracking. Pass ident as an airline flight designator (ICAO "UAL1" or IATA "UA1") or an aircraft tail number; returns recent and upcoming instances of that flight with origin/destination airports (ICAO/IATA/name/city/timezone), status, cancellation/diversion flags, scheduled vs estimated vs actual gate and runway times (out/off/on/in), departure and arrival delays, en-route progress percent, aircraft type and registration, and route distance. limit controls how many instances return (default 5, newest first by scheduled departure). Real-time operational data — answer "where is this flight, is it delayed, when does it land" with live values. For aircraft registry data see /api/aircraft/lookup; for airport metadata see /api/airport/lookup.
