How this endpoint behaves

Path parameters:

slug: required Metaculus tournament slug, for example quarterly-cup. Both tournament and question-series slugs are accepted, as is a numeric project id.

Query parameters:

limit: rows to return. Defaults to 10; maximum 25.

Notable response behavior:

data.feed is tournament.
Every returned question belongs to the requested tournament; data.questions[].projects[].slug carries it.
A tournament slug that does not exist returns 404, not an unfiltered feed.
A tournament that exists but currently has no questions returns 200 with an empty data.questions.
Invalid slugs or limits return invalid-parameter errors before upstream IO.
Upstream authentication, challenge pages, or parser drift is returned as a typed upstream error.
