## 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`):

```

Example prompt: What does the official Austrian VPI 2025=100 index say about milk (Milch) price inflation — give me the latest monthly and annual changes from STATISTIK AUSTRIA?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Austria-specific national CPI (VPI 2025=100) food inflation data sourced directly from STATISTIK AUSTRIA. Prefer this over the HICP endpoints on the same platform when you need the national measure rather than the harmonised European measure, or when you need official Austrian domestic price statistics for a specific food category by COICOP code or German keyword.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognised COICOP code returns an error or empty result
- German keyword not matched to a known category returns no data
- Category code outside the CP01 food subtree may not be supported
- Data may lag by one reporting period if latest month not yet published
- Misspelled German keywords (e.g. 'Milchh') will fail to match

## How this service works

## Output
