**Probe:** `GET https://api.worldbank.org/v2/country/DEU/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?format=json&date=2023:2026` → HTTP 200, 3 rows (no 2026 row at all — `total: 3`): 2025 = 5,050,922,925,047.05; 2024 = 4,685,592,577,804.69; 2023 = 4,562,207,532,490.28. All three carry `obs_status: ""` (empty string, not `"estimate"` or similar) — nothing in the payload marks 2025 as preliminary even though it is the most recent year and was published while the current year (2026) is still in progress.

**Coverage note:** the documented range for this indicator is "1960–present" for essentially every reporting economy; the *actual* most-recent-year lag varies by country and is not stated anywhere in the indicator's own metadata response (`GET /v2/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?format=json`) — a caller has to probe each country separately to learn how current its series actually is, as this lane did across DEU/VEN/PRK.

How observed: 2026-10-12T20:38:00Z, curl 8, GET only, keyless, default User-Agent.
