## 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-spodumene-lithium-price-history-3f0a8696
```

Example prompt: Pull me the full daily SC6 spodumene price history from January 2024 to today — I need the complete USD/tonne time series including lithium carbonate spot prices.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a complete historical price series for SC6 spodumene concentrate or lithium carbonate, especially for charting, trend analysis, or financial modeling. It is the only source that combines SC6 spot prices with producer realized prices cited to regulatory filings. Use /vault/summary instead if you only need the latest single print and want to save cost ($0.02 vs $0.20).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid date format for 'from' or 'to' parameters returns an error
- Date range outside the available history (pre-May 2023) may return empty or partial data
- Invalid 'interval' enum value returns a validation error
- Service downtime on fly.dev infrastructure may cause timeouts
- Payment failure (x402) blocks access to the data
