## 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 bizintel-api-federal-reserve-interest-rate-lookup-4bad8b22 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What is the current U.S. Federal Reserve federal funds target rate? I need the rate range and how recent the data is.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, structured, pay-per-call lookup of the current U.S. Federal Reserve federal funds target rate without managing API keys. It is ideal for AI agents embedding rate context into financial analysis, loan comparisons, or macroeconomic summaries at very low cost ($0.01 USDC). Prefer alternatives (e.g. direct FRED API) when you need historical rate time-series data or real-time tick-level precision.

## Known failure modes

- Rate data temporarily unavailable — may return supported:false or low confidence
- Stale data_as_of date if the upstream source has not been refreshed after a recent FOMC meeting
- Network or worker timeout returning a 5xx error
- Rate has changed but response still reflects prior period until data source updates

## How this service works

Retrieves the current Federal Reserve Board federal funds target interest rate.

## Output

A JSON object containing the current federal funds rate range as a string (e.g. '5.25% - 5.50%'), a confidence field ('high'/'medium'/'low'), a data_as_of date (month-year), a warnings array for any caveats, a supported boolean, and a disclaimer noting this is informational only.
