# DataSig ILA Labor Action Signal

> DataSig ILA Labor Action Signal is a paid API for AI agents from datasig.ai, paid per call via x402, $1.4/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns a live supply chain action intelligence signal indicating ILA (International Longshoremen's Association) labor disruption risk and recommended inventory pre-positioning probability for a specified US port.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://datasig.ai/signals/ila-labor
- Price: $1.4/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-14

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 datasig-ila-labor-action-signal-1f50f671
```

Example prompt: What's the ILA labor action signal right now for the Port of New York (USNYK) — is there a pre-positioning recommendation and what's the probability?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, actionable ILA labor disruption intelligence specifically for US East Coast and Gulf ports (USNYK, USBLT, USSAV, USORF). It is ideal for supply chain agents that need probabilistic signals — not just news — to trigger inventory pre-positioning or shipment rerouting decisions. Prefer this over general news or freight APIs when you need a machine-readable probability score tied to union labor action risk.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported port code returns an error or empty response
- Stale data if underlying labor intelligence feed has not updated recently
- Payment failure via x402 if wallet has insufficient USDC balance
- Network timeout if the live intelligence pipeline is delayed
- No signal returned if no active labor risk is detected for the queried port

## How this service works

DataSig delivers live supply chain action intelligence to AI agents via x402 micropayments. Tariff changes, port congestion, blank sailing risk, supplier distress. Pay per call in USDC on Base. No API key.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the queried port code, a named supply chain action signal (e.g. PRE_POSITION_INVENTORY), and a probability score between 0 and 1 indicating the likelihood of that signal being actionable based on live ILA labor intelligence.
