## 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

Example prompt: Pull the latest managed money positioning report for corn futures from Edge Agents — I want to know whether speculators are net long or short, the confidence level, and where the data comes from.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, provenance-signed, evidence-backed managed money positioning data specifically for corn futures — particularly when you need sourced, verifiable intelligence (not inferred or synthetic data) for decision-making by executives, strategy teams, or autonomous trading agents. Prefer this over generic news or LLM-generated summaries when auditability and contradiction disclosure matter.

## Known failure modes

- Data temporarily unavailable if upstream CFTC or source feeds are delayed — dataStatus may indicate incomplete
- Payment failure (402) if USDC payment is not correctly attached per x402 protocol
- Stale data if the underlying report has not yet been refreshed for the current reporting period
- Malformed response if input schema is incorrectly structured
- Rate or access errors if the facilitator or payment gateway is unreachable

## How this service works

Direct CFTC Commitments of Traders managed-money long, short, spread and net positioning for Corn, with open-interest share and exact contract provenance. Purpose: Measure the latest CFTC managed-money net positioning in Corn without inferring trader motive or predicting price direction. 168-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A JSON object containing: a quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level (e.g. 'high'); an analysis block with commodity family, intent tags (leverage, positioning, open-interest), and a narrative summary of current managed money positioning; an evidence block listing covered assets (CORN), policy type, and actual live data sources; provenance metadata including issuer URL and a signed flag; generation timestamp; schema version; and a disclaimer clarifying this is market research, not investment advice.
