## 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 clinkagent-lithium-research-vault-summary-edf3a810
```

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

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.02) headline financial and operational snapshot for a specific lithium or battery-metals company or mine without needing full comparable rankings. Prefer /vault/summary over /vault/comparables when you only need a single entity's data rather than a ranked peer comparison. Ideal for due diligence lookups, screening, or populating a report with key metrics for ALB, SQM, SGML, EMH, GL1, PMETF, or named mines like Greenbushes or Atacama.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown ticker or mine name returns an error or empty result
- Level parameter mismatch (e.g. querying a mine name with level=company) may return no data
- Stale data if the underlying source filing has not been refreshed
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 micropayment is not correctly handled

## How this service works

Lithium Research Vault - headline snapshot for any lithium & battery-metals company, producing mine, or DFS-stage developer. One row: latest production, AISC, cash/debt/EBITDA, reserves, DFS NPV/IRR, top holder, source filing. Albemarle, Pilbara, SQM, Greenbushes, Atacama, Cinovec, Manna, Bandeira. 66 lithium mines (43 producing + 23 developer), 44 operators. Query by ticker (ALB, SQM, SGML, EMH, GL1, PMETF) or mine name. Cheapest tier; /vault full rows, /vault/comparables ranking.

## Output

A single-row structured summary containing: latest production volume, all-in sustaining cost (AISC), cash position, debt, EBITDA, mineral reserves, DFS NPV and IRR (for developer-stage assets), top institutional or strategic holder, and a reference to the source filing. Data covers 66 lithium mines (43 producing, 23 developer) across 44 operators.
