## 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-m-a-market-window-705ad442
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest M&A market window report from Edge Agents — I want to know whether conditions are favorable right now for deal-making, including liquidity, leverage, rates, and FX signals.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, evidence-backed, signed intelligence report on M&A market conditions — including liquidity, leverage, rates, FX, and cycle signals — rather than a generic financial news feed or unverified market commentary. Especially useful for AI agents that need a machine-readable, provenance-attested market assessment at low cost ($0.01/call) to inform deal timing or investment committee briefings.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure: x402 payment of $0.01 USDC not processed, returns 402 Payment Required
- Service unavailable: upstream data sources temporarily unreachable, report may be incomplete
- Stale data: evidence assets array may be empty if live sources are unavailable at call time
- Rate limiting: excessive calls may be throttled

## 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 with a quality status and confidence rating for current M&A conditions, a cross-market analysis summary covering intents like liquidity, leverage, cycle, rates, and FX, an evidence block with source assets and policy, a signed provenance attestation from edge-agents.ai, a generatedAt timestamp, schema version, data status, and a disclaimer that the report is general market research and not investment advice.
