## 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 blackswan-6fe4949d
```

Example prompt: Check BlackSwan right now for any emerging risk signals or precursor indicators in the market — I want to know if there are early warning signs of a tail-risk event forming before it materializes.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, structured risk intelligence specifically designed for machine consumption — particularly for detecting early precursor signals before events materialize, or synthesizing market state across multiple data sources. Prefer over generic news feeds or sentiment APIs when you need quantified risk scores rather than qualitative text.

## Known failure modes

- No active risk signals detected returns empty or null risk score
- Stale data if upstream market feeds are delayed
- Ambiguous query returns generic rather than asset-specific risk assessment
- Rate limiting if agent polls too frequently
- Service unavailable during extreme market volatility when demand spikes
