Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/hkexnews-hk/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get ccass shareholding

Returns all CCASS participants and their shareholding for a given Hong Kong stock on a specified date. Results are sorted by shareholding quantity in descending order. The data covers the past 12 months of CCASS records. If the specified date falls on a weekend or public holiday, the system returns the most recent preceding business day's records.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `shareholding_date` | string | Yes | Shareholding date in YYYY/MM/DD format (e.g. 2026/08/11). Must be within the past 12 months. |
| `stock_code` | string | Yes | Hong Kong stock code, 4-5 digits with leading zeros preserved (e.g. 01592, 00001). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/hkexnews-hk/get-ccass-shareholding \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \

  -d '{"shareholding_date":"<string>","stock_code":"<string>"}'
```

### Search ccass shareholding

Search CCASS shareholding data for a given stock on a specific date. Returns all CCASS participants (market intermediaries and consenting investor participants) holding shares, with their name, address, shareholding quantity, and percentage. Results are sorted by shareholding descending. Only data within the past 12 months is available; if the date falls on a Sunday or Hong Kong public holiday, the preceding business day's data is returned.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
