## 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 alpha-vantage-company-overview-via-locus-x402-47fe2c83 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull up the full company overview for NVDA — I want the sector, market cap, P/E ratio, EPS, and analyst target price.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need comprehensive company fundamentals and overview data for a publicly traded stock in a single call, especially in agentic workflows where per-call microtransaction pricing (via x402/USDC) is acceptable and you do not want to manage Alpha Vantage API keys directly. Prefer this over raw Alpha Vantage API calls when you need a managed, pay-per-use gateway with no subscription setup.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns empty or error data object
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance results in 402 response before data is returned
- Delisted or OTC stocks may return incomplete or no data
- Rate limiting by the underlying Alpha Vantage API may cause delayed or failed responses
- Network timeout if the upstream Alpha Vantage service is unavailable
