# Clink Lithium Vault — Headline Summary

> Clink Lithium Vault — Headline Summary is a paid API for AI agents from clink-lithium-vault.fly.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-09).

## 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 clink-lithium-vault-fly-dev-7b6de5ae
```

Example prompt: Pull the headline snapshot for Albemarle (ticker ALB) at the company level from the Lithium Vault — I want their latest production volume, AISC, EBITDA, FCF, cash, debt, reserves, and top institutional holder.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.02) headline scan of a single lithium operator or mine — covering production, cost, balance sheet, and reserves in one call — without needing full historical row data (/vault at $0.05) or an AI-generated narrative (/vault/story at $0.20). Ideal for screening or quick due diligence lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown ticker or mine name returns an empty result or 404-style error
- Level mismatch (querying a mine name at company level) returns no data
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance insufficient
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made concurrently
- Stale data if the latest filing has not yet been ingested
- Truncated response if entity parameter is ambiguous or misspelled
