Retrieve the original letter document (format=pdf, 302 redirect) or page-segmented markdown whose bytes verify every anchor (format=markdown).
Audience: application and coding agent.

Coverage and source scope

Distribution rules: public_record and fund_published letters serve the full document; third_party letters return 403 document_not_distributable with a sourceUrl hint. EDGAR-sourced letters redirect to the EDGAR primary document. ?sha= retrieves a superseded source variant’s markdown so historical anchors always verify — only when the canonical letter’s distribution permits document serving.

Failure posture

  • treat non-2xx responses as contract-aware failures, not free-form errors
  • preserve requestId and traceparent in logs and downstream reports
  • if provenance or freshness metadata is present, return it unchanged so trust is not lost in the handoff
