      summary: Fetch content cards from a channel
      description: Returns the paginated content cards (stories, videos, photos, DailyShare cards, banners, polls, HTML cards) for the channel identified by `cid`. Callers should prefer the `contentUrl` returned by the Channels API, which already carries the correct `fm` for the channel, and follow `nextPageUrl` for pagination. The response also carries the `trackUrl` and per-card `trackData` that must be POSTed back to the Tracking API.
