## 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 creative-foresight-active-signals-api-bcf5cb57
```

Example prompt: Pull the currently active foresight signals from Creative Foresight so I can see what emerging trends and cultural shifts are being tracked right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or near-real-time access to active emerging trend signals and foresight intelligence from the Creative Foresight platform specifically. It is best suited for agents that need to monitor cultural shifts, brief creative teams, or inform strategic decisions with fresh signal data on a pay-per-call basis without a subscription commitment.

## Known failure modes

- Authentication failure if API key is invalid or missing — likely 401 Unauthorized
- Payment not processed — 402 Payment Required if x402 micropayment was not completed
- No active signals available — empty result set if no signals are currently flagged as active
- Rate limiting — 429 Too Many Requests if calls exceed quota
- Service unavailable — 503 if the foresight platform is temporarily down
