## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability alphapulse-defi-vault-discovery-4980256d
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the top DeFi copy-trading vaults right now across Hyperliquid and GMX — I want ones with solid APR, decent TVL, and a low-to-medium risk profile, and make sure the smart contracts have been assessed?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs structured, multi-platform DeFi vault discovery with risk scoring and smart-contract due diligence in a single call — particularly when comparing copy-trading vaults across Hyperliquid, GMX, dYdX, and Gains Network rather than querying each protocol natively.

## Known failure modes

- Platform-specific data unavailable — vault data for a particular DEX may be stale or temporarily inaccessible
- No vaults match filter criteria — returns empty result set
- Payment failure — x402 payment of $0.08 USDC not processed, returns 402 status
- Rate limiting — too many requests in short period
- Smart contract assessment data missing for newer or less-audited vaults

## How this service works

## Output
