## 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`):

Example prompt: Pull the latest UK CPI annual inflation report from Edge Agents — I need the current rate, confidence level, and any policy signals from the Eurostat and ONS sources.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need an evidence-backed, signed and sourced UK CPI inflation report derived directly from Eurostat and ONS live publications, with quality confidence scoring and policy context — particularly when accuracy provenance and disclaimer compliance matter (e.g. for institutional, government, or regulated investment workflows). Prefer this over raw statistical APIs when you need pre-synthesized macro intelligence with confidence metadata rather than raw data tables.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream Eurostat/ONS data temporarily unavailable — dataStatus may indicate incomplete
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — returns 429
- Malformed request parameters — returns 400 with schema error
- Source data stale or not yet refreshed for current period — limitations field will state coverage gaps
