## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability edge-agents-portfolio-risk-guard-326de242
```

Example prompt: Can you run a Portfolio Risk Guard check and give me the current cross-market risk, momentum, and volatility signals — I need the evidence sources and confidence level included so I can share it with my investment committee.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need evidence-backed, provenance-signed portfolio risk intelligence that covers cross-market signals (risk, momentum, rotation, volatility, sentiment) in a single call. It is especially suited for AI agents and business leaders who need bounded decisions with stated limitations and contradiction flagging, rather than raw market data feeds or unverified summaries. Prefer it over generic financial data APIs when auditability, confidence scoring, and signed provenance are required for reporting to boards, CFOs, or regulators.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed — HTTP 402 returned if USDC payment via x402 protocol is not completed
- Stale or incomplete evidence — report may note coverage gaps or unavailable sources in the limitations field
- Empty assets array — live report may return no specific asset citations if evidence is insufficient
- Schema version mismatch — clients expecting schema v1 may not parse v2 response correctly
- Service unavailability — endpoint may return 5xx if upstream data providers are unreachable

## How this service works

Scores current short-horizon market danger from shocks, dispersion, breadth and sentiment. Purpose: Give automated portfolios a transparent risk posture and the evidence behind it. 5-minute freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a quality status and confidence level ('strong'/'high'), a cross-market analysis family with classified intents (risk, momentum, rotation, volatility, evidence, sentiment), a summary of findings, an evidence block listing assets and live policy sources, a signed provenance record from edge-agents.ai, a generatedAt timestamp, schema version, data status, and a disclaimer clarifying this is general market research and not investment advice.
