## 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 datakoot-x402-list-economic-indicators-2099e5a7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What economic indicator series are available on Datakoot — specifically which US BLS, US Census, and World Bank codes I can query?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint first to discover available indicator codes before calling specific economic data endpoints. It is the canonical discovery/catalog call for the Datakoot platform and should be invoked when an agent needs to know which series codes exist before fetching time-series data. Prefer over hardcoding indicator codes, as the catalog may expand over time.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 handshake fails
- HTTP 402 returned if payment not attached
- Malformed input type/method fields return validation errors
- Network timeout if Base blockchain confirmation is slow

## How this service works

48 live public-data tools (security, packages, SEC filings, economy, FX, weather, domains, Federal Register, Base) for AI agents. $0.002 USDC per call on Base via x402, charged only on success. The same tools are free for 100 calls/day via MCP at <server>.datakoot.com/mcp.

## Output

A JSON object mapping source categories (us_bls, us_census, world_bank) to indicator codes and human-readable descriptions, plus a note explaining which tools use which data sources. Covers US CPI, PPI, nonfarm payrolls, unemployment rate, average hourly earnings, labor participation, retail sales, GDP, exports, inflation, population, and more.
