## 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-australia-unemployment-decision-intelligence-85e932f5
```

Example prompt: Pull me the latest evidence-backed analysis of Australia's unemployment situation — I need the confidence rating, key findings, and provenance so I can brief the board on current labour market conditions.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need provenance-signed, confidence-rated macro intelligence on Australian unemployment specifically — not raw ABS data or generic news summaries. It is purpose-built for structured decision-making contexts (boards, CFOs, autonomous agents) where auditability and bounded conclusions matter. Prefer it over general web search when you need a consistent JSON schema with quality status and stated limitations rather than unstructured text.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or x402 protocol failure — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required
- Data temporarily unavailable — response may indicate incomplete dataStatus
- Stale or incomplete evidence — limitations field in response will explicitly note coverage gaps
- Invalid or missing request parameters — may return 400 Bad Request
- Service downtime — may return 5xx errors

## How this service works

Latest available Australia unemployment plus a comparable annual history from the World Bank World Development Indicators API, with source, lag and revision caveats. Purpose: Give an autonomous agent a normalized, directly sourced Australia unemployment series without forcing it to understand World Bank indicator codes or response shapes. 24-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A structured JSON report containing: a quality/confidence assessment (e.g. 'strong'/'high'), a macro analysis summary with labour-focused intents, evidence assets with source provenance, a signed issuer record from edge-agents.ai, generation timestamp, schema version (2.0), stated data limitations, and a standard disclaimer that the output is general market research and not investment advice.
