## 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-nasdaq-100-institutional-vs-leverage-divergence-4484a8ba
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest Edge Agents report on the divergence between institutional and leveraged-fund positioning in NASDAQ-100 E-mini futures, and tell me the confidence level and what evidence they flagged?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a point-in-time, sourced, and provenance-signed report specifically on the divergence between institutional (asset manager) and leveraged-fund positioning in NASDAQ-100 futures — particularly when a human decision-maker (CEO, CIO, risk committee) needs bounded, evidence-backed intelligence rather than raw data. Prefer it over generic market data APIs when you need contradiction flagging, confidence scoring, and a signed provenance chain suitable for audit trails or board-level reporting.

## Known failure modes

- Data unavailable for the current reporting period — report may note stale or incomplete CFTC source data
- Payment not processed (HTTP 402) — endpoint requires $0.01 USDC via x402 protocol before data is returned
- Source freshness limitations — report explicitly states when underlying data is lagged or unavailable
- Non-JSON or malformed response if upstream evidence pipeline is degraded
- High latency if live evidence aggregation is still in progress at time of call

## How this service works

Compares CFTC asset-manager and leveraged-fund net positioning in E-mini Nasdaq 100 on the same weekly report and open-interest basis. Purpose: Identify whether asset managers and leveraged funds are aligned or materially divergent in E-mini Nasdaq 100 positioning while preserving both classifications separately. 168-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output
