## 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 datastand-dev-npm-vulnerability-digest-05ef3868
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest npm security advisories for me — I need severity, CVSS scores, affected package names, vulnerable version ranges, and what versions have patches, all in a clean machine-readable format.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, normalized, machine-readable bulk feed of recent npm advisories — especially for automated pipelines, dashboards, or dependency audits — rather than querying the npm audit CLI per-project or scraping GitHub Security Advisories directly. Ideal when you want ~100 recent advisories in one call without writing your own normalization layer.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or rejected — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream GitHub Advisory Database temporarily unavailable — may return 503 or stale data
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — returns 429
- Malformed request headers — returns 400

## How this service works

The newest npm security advisories as machine-readable JSON: severity, CVSS score and vector, CWEs, affected packages, vulnerable ranges and first patched version. Merged from two GitHub Advisory Database orderings, most recently published and most recently revised, so a newly assigned CVSS or a widened vulnerable range reaches you even when the advisory is months old. Add ?since=<ISO-8601> for only what changed; an empty delta is refused free, so polling costs nothing until there is news.

## Output

A JSON array of up to ~100 recent npm security advisories sourced from the GitHub Advisory Database, each normalized to include: severity level, CVSS score, affected package name(s), vulnerable version ranges, and the patched version(s) available.
