## 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-germany-fdi-net-inflows-decision-intelligence-82c404e8
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest evidence-backed intelligence on Germany's FDI net inflows — I need the confidence rating, any contradictions flagged, and the source provenance so I can present this to the board?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, provenance-backed macro intelligence specifically on Germany's FDI net inflows — particularly when confidence scoring, contradiction flagging, and verifiable sourcing are required for high-stakes decisions (board presentations, CFO reports, investment committee briefings). Prefer this over generic financial data APIs when auditability and bounded decision context matter more than raw data volume.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid USDC payment header — returns 402 Payment Required
- Service temporarily unavailable or upstream data not fresh — may return incomplete dataStatus
- No recent evidence available — evidence.assets array may be empty with limitations noted in response
- Malformed request parameters — returns error or degraded analysis quality
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — returns 429 or equivalent error

## 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
