## 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 citiview-fpds-federal-contract-awards-search-ef22cb94

Example prompt: Search US federal contract awards for 'cybersecurity' and show me the top 10 results — I want to see who won the contracts, how much they were awarded, which agency gave them out, and the NAICS codes.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search US federal government procurement data from FPDS by keyword, vendor name, or agency — particularly for competitive intelligence, market research, or tracking government spending in a specific domain. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, machine-readable contract award data with amounts, dates, and NAICS codes.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for obscure or misspelled keywords — returns empty results
- Overly broad queries may return many loosely related awards requiring further filtering
- FPDS data may have a lag and not reflect very recent awards
- Rate limiting or payment failure for the $0.005 USDC per-call fee via x402
