# AEML GAUGE History — Seasonal Percentile Projection

> AEML GAUGE History — Seasonal Percentile Projection is a paid API for AI agents from aeml-x402.zeabur.app, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Returns seasonal percentile positioning, frequency, percentile distribution, method, and source for a monitored signal entity

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability aeml-gauge-history-seasonal-percentile-projection-bba36792
```

Example prompt: Pull the seasonal percentile history for BTC spot price (signal_id: crypto.spot, entity: btc) — I want to know what percentile today's price sits at, how frequently it's been here before, and the full percentile breakdown with method and source.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to understand how a current signal reading compares to its own seasonal historical distribution — not just its raw value, but its percentile rank within the same calendar period across years. Prefer this over the base /gauge endpoint when seasonal context and frequency positioning are the primary need. Use alongside /gauge/ruler for official threshold context or /gauge for the full core snapshot. Best when the question is 'is this historically unusual for this time of year?'

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid signal_id returns 422 or error — must use valid ASCII binomial notation like crypto.spot
- Missing or invalid entity returns 422 — entity must be a known catalog entry (check /gauge/catalog)
- Signal has no seasonal history data available — returns null history field
- Data source is stale or frozen — provenance.freshness will show 'stale' and dead_source may be set
- Signal exists but has no seasonal percentile method defined — may return null or 422
- Payment not fulfilled — x402 payment required; unpaid requests return 402

## How this service works

Add-on, historical placement: seasonal percentile for the current point, frequency, the percentile table, and the method and source used to compute them. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: the signal_id and entity, the observed_at timestamp, seasonal percentile positioning of the current value, frequency distribution showing how often this level has been reached, full percentile thresholds (e.g. p10/p25/p50/p75/p90), methodology and source citation, provenance metadata (freshness, data lineage, age), a verifiable record_hash (sha256), and an Ed25519-signed _citation for offline trust verification. A nature field provides a neutral disclaimer that GAUGE provides observation only, not forecasts or recommendations.
