## 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 carbon-cashmere-oracle-consensus-eth-3-way-price-aggregation-098a5d72
```

Example prompt: Pull the 3-way oracle consensus price for ETH right now — I want to see the mean, median, and whether any of the sources like CoinGecko or Pyth is an outlier with significant deviation.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a cross-validated ETH spot price with built-in outlier detection and spread analysis across three independent oracles (DIA, Pyth, CoinGecko). Prefer it over single-source price feeds when data integrity and oracle divergence detection matter, such as in DeFi risk checks, arbitrage detection, or when a trustworthy reference price is needed for settlement or display.

## Known failure modes

- One or more oracle sources unavailable — partial result or error returned
- Coin symbol not supported — 404 or empty response
- Payment not provided or insufficient — 402 Payment Required
- Rate limit exceeded — 429 response
- Network timeout from upstream oracle — stale or missing data

## How this service works

Professional crypto market intelligence. Real-time prices, signals, and market scoring.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with per-source prices (DIA, Pyth, CoinGecko) and timestamps, a consensus block with mean, median, max spread percentage, and any identified outlier with its deviation in percent and USD, plus pairwise spread percentages between all three source pairs.
