## 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 disruption-intelligence-ripple-api-regional-disruption-lookup-456e33d8
```

Example prompt: Pull the disruption intelligence snapshot for Cook County, Illinois — I want to see how many layoff events there are, the average severity, and the total employees affected so I can assess downstream business risk in that region.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need county-level labor disruption intelligence derived from WARN filings and regional economic signals, particularly for supply chain risk assessment, regional economic monitoring, or identifying downstream business impacts from workforce events. Prefer this over generic economic data APIs when you need granular geospatial disruption data aggregated across labor signals.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized state/county combination returns empty or zero-value data
- State or county path parameters not URL-encoded correctly may return 404
- Payment not completed in USDC on Base results in 402 Payment Required
- County with no recent WARN filings or labor signals returns zeroed-out metrics
- Rate limiting or payment failure may block repeated calls

## How this service works

Paid layoff risk and WARN filing intelligence via x402. Company risk scores, ripple effects, and geographic disruption data.

## Output

A JSON object containing: event_count (number of disruption events in the region), severity_avg (average severity score across events), and total_employees (total number of employees affected by disruptions in the specified state/county).
