## 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 cftc-commitments-of-traders-cot-report-adh-financial-intelligence-1f157cdd
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest CFTC Commitments of Traders report — I want to see which commodity markets have the most extreme speculative net positioning right now and how things changed week over week.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need ready-to-use, entity-resolved CFTC COT speculative positioning data without having to parse the CFTC's raw CSV files yourself. It is ideal for macro regime analysis, crowded-trade detection, and weekly positioning reviews in commodity and financial futures markets. Prefer this over raw CFTC feeds when you want structured JSON with net positions, percent-of-open-interest metrics, and WoW deltas already computed.

## Known failure modes

- Data may be up to one week stale as COT reports are published weekly on Fridays after market close
- If CFTC source is delayed or unavailable, upstream data collection may lag
- No contract-specific filtering supported — always returns all covered markets
- Non-200 HTTP responses may occur if the x402 payment is not properly settled
