## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability api-lastlookdata-com-2a157c54
```

Example prompt: Give me a current macroeconomic context brief — rates, inflation, employment, FX, and energy — formatted as a natural-language paragraph I can paste directly into my AI model's system prompt.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a single, comprehensive macroeconomic snapshot across all major indicator categories (rates, inflation, employment, FX, energy) formatted specifically for LLM context injection. Prefer this over individual indicator endpoints when you want breadth across all macro domains in one call rather than depth on a specific series or asset class.

## Known failure modes

- Payment required (402) if x402 payment header is missing or invalid
- Upstream FRED or market data unavailable causing stale or partial response
- Rate limiting if too many requests in a short window
- Network timeout if data aggregation takes too long
