## 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-state-unemployment-data-6b3d979b
```

Example prompt: What's the current unemployment rate in California — including the labor force size, number employed and unemployed, and the last 13 months of history?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need official US state-level unemployment statistics including historical trends or a full national state ranking. It is the right choice for labor market analysis, economic dashboards, policy research, or any task requiring BLS-derived unemployment data at the state level with 13 months of history.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized state name/code returns an error or empty result
- Data may lag by 1-2 months due to BLS reporting schedules
- Missing state parameter returns full ranking, not an error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC triggers 402 response

## How this service works

US unemployment by state: one state's rate, labor force, employed and unemployed with 13 months of history, or all 50 states plus DC ranked lowest to highest.

## Output

For a single state: unemployment rate, total labor force, employed count, and unemployed count for the current month plus up to 13 months of historical data. For all states (no state parameter): a ranked list of all 50 US states plus DC ordered from lowest to highest unemployment rate, each with their rate and labor force figures.
