## 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 clado-deep-research-75d09738 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Start a deep research job on Clado to find up to 20 software engineers at Stripe — search for 'software engineer' and restrict results to Stripe's LinkedIn company page.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to research a larger set of LinkedIn profiles matching a search query, especially when filtering by specific companies. Prefer this over the synchronous Search or Contacts endpoints when you need deep enrichment on many profiles and can tolerate async results. Use when you need to initiate a batch research job and poll for results later.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'query' parameter returns a validation error
- Invalid LinkedIn company URL format causes filter to be ignored or error
- Exceeding rate limits returns a quota/throttle error
- Job initiation may succeed but the async job itself may fail — check status endpoint for errors
- Invalid limit value (e.g. non-numeric) may cause a 400 error

## How this service works

Deep Research

## Output

Returns a job_id (UUID), a status field set to 'pending', and a confirmation message indicating the deep research job has been initiated. The agent must then poll the Deep Research Status endpoint using the returned job_id to retrieve results.

## Example request

```json
{
 "limit": 10,
 "query": "software engineer"
}
```
