## 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 basebuilder-stocks-quote-24091ba9 -d '<json body>'
```

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a real-time or near-real-time stock quote for a specific equity ticker and are operating in a crypto-payment (x402/USDC) environment. Prefer this over alternatives when you need pay-per-call pricing with no subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown ticker symbol returns an error
- Market closed hours may return stale or no data
- Payment failure (402) if USDC not provided or insufficient
- Rate limiting if too many calls in a short window
- Ticker not covered by the API returns a not-found response
