## 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 ecosystem-intelligence-onrender-com-5044491b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Give me the latest 50 AI-generated ecosystem stories for Ethereum — I want headlines, narratives, which protocols are involved, and how significant each story is.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs rich, pre-computed narrative context about blockchain ecosystem activity without the cost or latency of invoking an LLM directly. Prefer it over the free-tier endpoint when more than 50 stories are needed, or when higher throughput is required. Best for research, dashboards, or agents that synthesize ecosystem trends.

## Known failure modes

- Missing X-PAYMENT header returns 402 with payment instructions
- Invalid chain value not in [arbitrum, ethereum, base, avalanche] returns an error
- limit exceeding 100 is clamped or rejected
- Service unavailable on Render cold start causes latency or 503

## How this service works

Returns recent AI-generated blockchain ecosystem stories with headlines, narratives, and significance.

## Output

An array of up to 100 ecosystem story objects, each containing a headline, narrative description, list of mentioned protocols, a significance indicator, and a category label — all pre-generated by an LLM so the caller doesn't need to invoke one.
