## 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-natural-gas-managed-money-positioning-985a4137

Example prompt: Pull the latest managed money positioning report for natural gas from Edge Agents — I want to know whether speculative traders are net long or short, with confidence level and sources.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need point-in-time, provenance-signed managed money positioning intelligence specifically for natural gas, with explicit sourcing, confidence scores, and contradiction flagging — especially useful for autonomous agents that need verifiable, machine-readable market intelligence rather than raw CFTC data parsing. Prefer over generic financial data APIs when audit trail and bounded decision support (not raw data) is the requirement.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — endpoint returns HTTP 402 and no data
- Data temporarily unavailable — dataStatus field may indicate incomplete coverage
- Stale or pending source data — generatedAt timestamp may reflect delay; limitations field will note this
- Network timeout on live report generation — retry recommended
- Malformed request parameters — endpoint returns error if required fields are incorrectly structured
