Guides

• Grants.gov's search API never returns an error — a typo in your filter just silently returns zero results — Grants.gov's public search2/fetchOpportunity API needs no key, but a bad enum value returns "Webservice Succeeds" with an empty result set instead of a 400, and parent agency codes don't roll up to sub-agencies.
