## 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-italy-fdi-net-inflows-decision-intelligence-f16ae7de
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest evidence-backed analysis of Italy's foreign direct investment net inflows, including confidence level, source provenance, and any known data limitations, so I can include it in our board strategy briefing.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, evidence-backed, provenance-signed FDI net inflow data specifically for Italy with explicit confidence scoring and contradiction flagging — as opposed to raw statistical databases, general news APIs, or broad multi-country FDI aggregators. It is ideal for autonomous agents, CFOs, and strategy teams that require auditable, point-in-time macro intelligence with explicit limitations disclosed rather than inferred summaries.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid USDC payment — 402 response blocking access
- Data temporarily unavailable for the Italy FDI metric — dataStatus field may indicate incomplete
- Low confidence or sparse evidence — quality.confidence may return 'low' with limited evidence assets
- Stale or lagged source data — generatedAt timestamp may reflect prior reporting period
- Network or upstream macro data source failure — empty evidence assets array returned

## 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

Returns a JSON object containing: a quality block (status and confidence rating), an analysis block (macro family, intent tags, and a narrative summary of Italy FDI net inflows findings), an evidence block (source assets, policy, and source citations from live reports), service ID, data status, a disclaimer, signed provenance from the issuer, generation timestamp, schema version, and a limitations array describing coverage and freshness caveats.
