## 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 customs-import-compliance-brief-a16dc98c
```

Example prompt: Give me a quick LLM-written digest of the customs and import compliance rules that have changed in the last 30 days, with any important deadlines called out.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a concise, human-readable executive summary of customs and import compliance changes rather than raw regulatory data. Ideal for compliance officers, trade teams, or agents that need to surface actionable deadline-driven insights without parsing voluminous regulatory feeds. Choose this over raw data endpoints when the consumer needs narrative context and prioritization rather than structured records.

## Known failure modes

- No changes detected in the specified window — brief may be empty or minimal
- Invalid `since` date-time format returns a 400 error
- LLM generation failure may fall back to template-based output (reflected in generatedBy field)
- Payment not received or x402 flow not completed — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream regulatory data source unavailable — may return 503 or stale brief

## How this service works

LLM-written compliance digest of the customs & import compliance rules in the window that actually matter (customs, country of origin, importer, entry, duty) — issuing agency named, deadlines called out.

## Output

A structured object containing: a `brief` field with an LLM-written prose summary of the most important customs and import compliance rules and deadlines in the specified window; a `generatedBy` field indicating whether the content was produced by an LLM or template; and a `basedOnChanges` integer indicating how many underlying regulatory changes were synthesized.
