# econ-fred

> econ-fred is a paid API for AI agents from agentdatum.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

## 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 econ-fred-a8bd2b38
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest US macroeconomic snapshot — GDP, CPI, unemployment, the federal funds rate, 10-year Treasury yield, yield spread, M2, and nonfarm payrolls — all in one go.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single, no-authentication-required call that bundles all 8 major US macro indicators into one CSV download, avoiding the need to query FRED directly with an API key or make 8 separate requests. Ideal for macroeconomic dashboards, investment research, recession monitoring, or any workflow that needs a quick pulse-check on US economic conditions without managing FRED credentials.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream FRED source unavailable or changed — may return stale or empty data
- Network timeout if FRED data pull is slow
- HTTP 402 if payment (0.01 USDC via x402) is not provided or fails
- Malformed CSV if upstream source format changes after 2026-07-30 source migration
