## 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 compare-topic-popularity-by-wikipedia-pageviews-7205c659 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Compare the popularity of Nike, Adidas, and Puma over the past 30 days using Wikipedia pageviews — I want to see who has the biggest share of attention, who's trending up fastest, and how their interest scores stack up on a 0-100 scale.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to compare relative public interest between 2-5 named topics (brands, people, products, keywords) over time, especially when search-volume data (e.g. Google Trends) is unavailable or less appropriate. It is well-suited to competitor benchmarking, brand tracking, content prioritization, and public figure attention analysis. Prefer it over single-topic Wikipedia pageview lookups when comparative ranking and share-of-attention are the primary goal.

## Known failure modes

- Fewer than 2 or more than 5 topics provided — request rejected
- Topic name not found in Wikipedia — no pageview data returned for that topic
- Invalid date range or unsupported language — empty or error response
- Wikipedia API rate limiting or downtime — upstream data unavailable
- Very low-traffic topics may return noisy or sparse series

## How this service works

Compare the popularity of 2-5 topics (brands, competitors, products, people, keywords) by Wikipedia pageviews. Returns one jointly normalized 0-100 interest-over-time series per topic, share of attention, the most popular and the fastest-rising topic, and per-topic trend direction and spikes. A Google-Trends-style popularity comparison based on Wikipedia reading rather than searches. Suited to competitor analysis, brand tracking and content planning.

## Output

Returns one jointly normalized 0-100 interest-over-time series per topic, each topic's share of total attention, the most popular topic overall, the fastest-rising topic, and per-topic trend direction (up/down/stable) and spike events detected during the period.
