## 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-hong-kong-trade-openness-macro-intelligence-f8d2de16
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Edge Agents macro report on Hong Kong's trade openness — I need the confidence rating, key findings, and provenance so I can present it to the board with full sourcing.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, provenance-signed, confidence-rated macro assessment of Hong Kong's trade openness specifically — not raw data or generic economic statistics. It is ideal for AI agents that must cite sources, show contradictions, and deliver bounded conclusions to business leaders or compliance-sensitive workflows. Prefer it over generic web search when auditability and structured JSON output with disclaimers are required.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC balance — 402 Payment Required
- Service data temporarily unavailable — data status may return incomplete
- Stale or point-in-time data if underlying macro sources have not refreshed
- Empty evidence assets array if live sourcing is unavailable at call time
- Network timeout if the pay gateway is unreachable

## How this service works

Latest available Hong Kong SAR, China trade openness 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 Hong Kong SAR, China trade openness 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 JSON object containing a quality block with status and confidence rating, an analysis block with family classification and summary of Hong Kong trade openness findings, evidence assets with sourcing policy, a provenance record (issuer and signed flag), data status, schema version, generation timestamp, and standard disclaimers and limitations statements.
