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 answerpool-8-k-filings-list-1fbc690d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest 8-K filings for TSLA from the past 7 days from AnswerPool and flag any that are tagged as bankruptcy or officer change events, showing me the salience scores.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pre-parsed, label-enriched 8-K events without building your own EDGAR polling and item-code mapping logic. It is ideal for agents that need to monitor corporate events (bankruptcy, officer changes, earnings, cyber incidents) by ticker or event type, especially when salience scoring and human-readable labels are needed out of the box. Prefer it over raw EDGAR polling whenever time-to-signal and structured output matter.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized item code returns empty results
- Unknown ticker symbol returns zero events
- Time window too broad may return large paginated result sets requiring cursor handling
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or error response
- EDGAR indexing lag means very recent filings may not yet appear (index refreshes ~15 min)

## How this service works

AnswerPool turns SEC EDGAR, the Federal Register, USAspending, NIH, BLS and OpenAlex into structured JSON answers that AI agents and developers fetch in one call. 69 endpoints free, no account; derived analyses $0.02–$0.05 per call by card credits or USDC (x402). MCP server, full provenance.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a list of 8-K filing events, each including the ticker, company name, CIK, accession number, event type, item codes, human-readable event labels (e.g. bankruptcy, officer change, earnings), flags, a salience score, filing URL, and occurrence timestamp. Also includes pagination cursor, index start time, and total count.
