Sonic API endpoint
Returns the items in one Sonic Drive-In menu category, each with its name and published calorie count. Category slugs come from GET /sonic/categories. Some entries are themselves a nested size/variant group (e.g. "Coffee" expands to Small/Medium/Large/Rt.44 orderable sizes) rather than a single orderable product -- there is no price or full nutrition panel in this source, only calories; see GET /sonic/item for description, image, and a link to Sonic's nutrition guide.
/sonic/menuQuery parameters:
category (required) — category slug from /sonic/categories, e.g. breakfast.An unknown category returns 404.
Response includes category, items[], count, source_url, and fetched_at. Each item has name and calories.
