## Response Examples

#### Check stale attachments response

Mixed conversation: attachments without a stale source return only id and is_stale. When a staleness check fails for one attachment, is_stale is false and an error explains why. When an origin-backed attachment is out of date, the response includes type, origin, and resolved data (here a simple text body) for resync.
