## 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 edge-agents-ai-recession-business-exposure-intelligence-c931ed85
```

Example prompt: Can you pull me the latest recession business exposure report — I need an evidence-backed view on how exposed businesses are right now, including macro signals, policy stance, and a confidence rating?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a rapid, low-cost ($0.01 USDC), evidence-backed snapshot of overall business recession exposure with macro, policy, and cross-market dimensions — especially when the consuming agent or user requires a signed, provenanced report rather than a raw data feed. Prefer it over general LLM-generated economic commentary when citation integrity and a structured confidence score matter.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not completed (x402 payment required before data is returned)
- Stale or incomplete underlying evidence (coverage limitations stated in the report itself)
- No input schema mismatch detected but undocumented required query parameters may cause empty or default responses
- Service downtime resulting in no response from pay.edge-agents.ai

## How this service works

Edge Agents provides evidence-backed macro, market and decision intelligence for AI agents, individual leaders and investors, businesses and government teams requiring consulting, procurement and decision support. Machine services are purchasable per request over x402 on 5 settlement rails (Base/USDC, XRPL/RLUSD, Solana/USDC, Arbitrum/USDC and Polygon/USDC).
