## 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 asia-pulse-japan-market-ledger-6f540a81
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Japan market ledger — I need the customs chip export breakdown by destination (especially the Greater China and US shares), the current JGB yield curve, the next BOJ meeting date, and any upcoming earnings anchors.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need confirmed, fact-based Japan macroeconomic and trade data in a single call — particularly for JGB yield curve, BOJ calendar, semiconductor export destination breakdowns, and earnings anchors. Prefer this over general financial data APIs when you specifically need Japan-focused, curated ledger data without predictions or noise.

## Known failure modes

- Data temporarily unavailable if upstream source feed is stale — returns error or empty fields
- Payment not received or x402 flow incomplete — 402 response requiring USDC payment
- Invalid HTTP method (non-GET) — method not allowed error
- Rate limit exceeded — too many calls in short window
