What Alpaca exposes today: clean price, yield to maturity, yield to worst. Accrued interest is applied at settlement but is not returned on quote requests; for hold-sizing purposes Bluum estimates it internally. Bid/ask quotes, sizes, spreads, and benchmark identifiers are not part of Alpaca's fixed-income market-data response — those fields are omitted from this block.
