🟢whats_changed_since(cursor, naics, agency, recipient, keyword, ...)
Return federal contract awards that are NEW or MODIFIED since a cursor token. Pass the cursor from a prior call to get only changes since then (cursor = your bookmark). Filter by NAICS, awarding agency, recipient/contractor, keyword, and $ range. This is the GovCon delta feed's core lock-in primitive.
