## How to call it through Zero

Choose this endpoint when you need Alpaca options snapshot data without managing API keys or registering an account, and you can pay micro-amounts in USDC via the x402 protocol. Ideal for AI agents or automated workflows that need frictionless, wallet-based access to options market data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid feed parameter — returns error or empty response
- Network timeout or upstream Alpaca API unavailability — returns error
