## 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 collectablespulse-population-report-80f20ec7
```

Example prompt: Pull the population report for a PSA 10 1986 Fleer Michael Jordan rookie card — I want to know how many exist at each grade level and how scarce the top grades are compared to the total census.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs to assess the rarity or investment scarcity of a specific graded collectible by examining how many examples exist at each grade level. Ideal for collector or investor workflows where population data from PSA, PCGS, or CGC is needed to contextualize value, inform buying/selling decisions, or compare grade tiers. Prefer over general value endpoints when the primary question is about census counts and grade scarcity rather than market price.

## Known failure modes

- Collectible not found in grading service census — returns empty or error if the item has no graded population
- Ambiguous item description — may return incorrect census if the collectible identifier is not specific enough
- Grading service data unavailability — census data may be stale or unavailable for niche items
- Missing grade specification — may return aggregate data if specific grade query is unclear
