```sh
zero fetch --capability cudaso-construction-material-price-index-api-86d5006e

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest construction-material price index data for EU markets from Cudaso — I need verified figures from sources like Eurostat and the World Bank for a cost analysis report I'm putting together.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need verified, official-source construction-material price indices for EU or global markets, particularly when data must be traceable to Eurostat, ISTAT, MASE, or World Bank. It is purpose-built for AI agents with pay-per-request USDC pricing on Base, making it suitable for low-frequency, high-accuracy lookups without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not completed — 402 response requiring USDC payment on Base before data is returned
- Invalid or missing query parameters — API returns error if required fields are malformed
- Rate limiting — repeated rapid calls may be throttled
- Data unavailability — certain regional or temporal datasets may not yet be available
- Network timeout — API may be slow for complex queries
