}Get an article summary or podcast transcript.
Account mount: Bearer API key / JWT / OAuth only. Returns post metadata and synthesized summary after payment; authenticated callers without a subscription spend Drip credits. Wallet payments (x402 / MPP) are rejected with 403 account_only — use GET /api/v2/x402/sources/{sourceSlug}/{postSlug}. The first successful pay unlocks that post forever for the paying subject; X-Drip-Unlock re-reads are free on both mounts. Uses sourceId / sourceSlug instead of the v1 publicationId / publicationSlug.

}Headers
Bearer API key (pk_drip_…), OAuth access token, or session JWT. PRO/EXPERT subscription reads are included; other authenticated callers spend Drip credits. Wallet payments are not accepted on this mount — use the /api/v2/x402/ twin.
HMAC unlock token from a prior successful settle (unlockToken in the JSON body or this same response header). When valid for this post, returns the live summary with no charge (paymentInfo.protocol: unlock).
