# Citiview US Recession Dashboard

> Citiview US Recession Dashboard is a paid API for AI agents from agents.citiviewgroup.com, paid per call via x402, $0.006/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-14).

Returns a real-time US recession dashboard covering yield-curve inversions, Sahm rule, smoothed recession probability, Chicago Fed financial conditions, and unemployment rise — each with a flashing/not-flashing signal and an overall verdict.

## 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-us-recession-dashboard-0411fcc2
```

Example prompt: Pull up the US recession dashboard — I want to know if the yield curve is inverted, whether the Sahm rule is flashing, what the smoothed recession probability looks like, and what the overall verdict is right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single, opinionated US recession dashboard that aggregates multiple canonical indicators (yield curve, Sahm rule, financial conditions) into individual signal flags and one overall verdict, rather than pulling and computing each series yourself. Ideal for agents that need a quick macro risk pulse without building their own indicator logic.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream data source unavailable — underlying macro data feeds may be delayed or unreachable
- Stale data if underlying series (e.g. BLS unemployment, FRED yield curves) have not yet updated
- HTTP 402 Payment Required if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient
- Generic 5xx server error if the Citiview backend is temporarily down

## How this service works

US recession dashboard: yield-curve inversions (10y-3m and 10y-2y), real-time Sahm rule, smoothed recession probability, Chicago Fed financial conditions and the unemployment rise from its low, each with whether it is flashing, plus an overall verdict.

## Output

A structured JSON response containing individual readings and flashing/not-flashing status for: 10y-3m yield curve inversion, 10y-2y yield curve inversion, real-time Sahm rule, smoothed recession probability, Chicago Fed financial conditions index, and unemployment rise from its trough — plus an aggregated overall recession verdict.
