## 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-eurostat-ons-euro-area-macro-cycle-intelligence-48c7b98e
```

Example prompt: Give me the latest evidence-backed Euro Area macro cycle report — I want to know the current cycle phase, policy stance, labour market signals, and overall confidence level based on Eurostat and ONS data.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, evidence-backed Euro Area macroeconomic cycle intelligence grounded in official Eurostat and ONS statistical sources, with signed provenance and explicit confidence ratings. Prefer it over generic LLM macro summaries when auditability, source attribution, and structured JSON output are required. Best suited for agents, analysts, or decision-makers who need a single authoritative cycle assessment rather than raw data series.

## Known failure modes

- No required parameters beyond service ID — malformed requests may return 400
- Data may be temporarily unavailable if upstream Eurostat/ONS feeds are delayed, returning incomplete dataStatus
- Payment of 0.1 USDC via x402 protocol must be included or request is rejected with 402
- Report coverage limitations and source freshness caveats are always disclosed inline in the response

## How this service works

Euro Area Macro Cycle from official ONS/Eurostat evidence with source timing, provenance, missingness and bounded interpretation for autonomous agents. Purpose: combine HICP, unemployment, GDP, industrial production and retail activity into a euro-area cycle brief 24-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A structured JSON report containing: macro cycle quality status and confidence rating, cross-market family classification, key intents (e.g. evidence, cycle, adoption, labour, growth), a natural-language summary of current Euro Area findings, relevant asset coverage (EUR), policy stance classification, provenance details including issuer identity and signed status, data completeness status, generation timestamp, schema version, and standard disclaimers noting this is general market research and not investment advice.
