## 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-china-central-government-debt-intelligence-69ada96e
```

Example prompt: Pull me the latest evidence-backed intelligence on China's central government debt from Edge Agents — I need the confidence rating, key findings, and sourcing provenance for a board-level strategy briefing.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need provenance-signed, evidence-bounded intelligence specifically on China's central government debt — not broad China economy data or other countries' debt. It is purpose-built for autonomous agents and decision-makers who require contradictions flagged, confidence rated, and sourcing documented for accountability. Prefer it over generic financial data APIs when you need human-readable bounded conclusions with limitations disclosed, rather than raw time-series numbers.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not completed — endpoint requires $0.01 USDC via x402 protocol before data is returned
- Data temporarily unavailable — dataStatus field may indicate incomplete coverage
- Stale report — generatedAt timestamp may reflect a prior reporting cycle if source data has not refreshed
- Empty evidence assets — live report may have limited sourcing at time of call
- Schema mismatch — caller should check schemaVersion field for compatibility

## 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).

## Output

A JSON object containing a quality block (status and confidence rating), an analysis block (family, intents, summary of China central government debt findings), an evidence block (source assets, data policy, sourcing notes), provenance metadata (issuer URL, signed flag), generation timestamp, data status, schema version, and a disclaimer clarifying this is general market research rather than investment advice.
