## 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 business-frameworks-cash-flow-sub-1m-band-7401e163
```

Example prompt: Give me the cash flow framework for a business doing under $1M in revenue — I need to understand the owner-first pay principle and how cash behaves at that scale so I can advise my client.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs structured, synthesized business framework guidance specifically for cash flow at the sub-$1M revenue stage. Prefer it over generic financial data APIs when the goal is advisory synthesis with citations rather than raw financial figures. Use it alongside sibling endpoints like /cash-flow/band/1-5m for comparative band analysis or /cash-flow/decide/owner-pay for actionable owner-pay decisions.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC balance — returns 402 Payment Required
- Network or Cloudflare Workers timeout — returns 5xx error
- Invalid path or version mismatch — returns 404 Not Found
- Rate limiting if called excessively — may return 429
