## 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-japan-structural-macro-profile-6482447f
```

Example prompt: Pull me the current Japan structural macro profile from Edge Agents — I need the evidence-backed cycle, inflation, labour, and growth analysis with provenance and confidence ratings for our board strategy session.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, evidence-backed, decision-grade macroeconomic profile specifically for Japan, with explicit provenance, confidence ratings, and contradiction flagging suitable for board-level, CFO, or autonomous agent workflows. Prefer this over generic LLM-generated macro summaries when sourcing and verifiability of the evidence matter, or when you need bounded decisions with stated limitations for compliance or audit purposes.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or invalid — endpoint returns 402 requiring x402 USDC payment
- Stale or incomplete evidence — dataStatus field may indicate partial coverage with limitations noted in report
- No schema fields passed incorrectly — input schema is loosely defined and may return default Japan structural profile
- Service downtime or upstream data unavailability — may return error or degraded confidence report
- Signed provenance verification failure — signed field may be false if issuer is unreachable

Machine services are purchasable per request over x402 on 5 settlement rails (Base/USDC, XRPL/RLUSD, Solana/USDC, Arbitrum/USDC and Polygon/USDC).
