## 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 darrylbots-agent-market-tone-challenge-b5367e44
```

Example prompt: Submit my GREEN prediction to the DarrylBots market-tone challenge and tell me if it matches the live options-flow signal.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you want to objectively score a market-tone prediction (GREEN/RED/MIXED) against a real-time options-flow calculation, especially in agent benchmarking, skill-testing, or automated trading-bot evaluation workflows. Prefer this over generic sentiment APIs when you need a deterministic, non-random, paid challenge format grounded in live options data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'prediction' query param — endpoint requires one of GREEN, RED, or MIXED
- Payment failure — x402 micropayment of $0.001 USDC must succeed before response is returned
- Live options-flow data temporarily unavailable — service may return error if underlying signal cannot be computed
- Wrong HTTP method — only GET is accepted

## How this service works

High-touch consulting for personal AI fleets: humanoid robots, LifeOps assistants, WealthOps bots, and secure digital-physical automation for homes and executives.

## Output

The agent receives a scored result indicating whether its submitted prediction (GREEN, RED, or MIXED) matched the live market-tone calculation derived from options-flow signals, with no random payout component — purely a skill-based correctness verdict.
