## 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-south-korea-fdi-net-inflows-decision-intelligence-fa80d6e8
```

Example prompt: Give me a fresh, evidence-backed report on South Korea's FDI net inflows — I need the confidence rating, any contradictions in the data, and full provenance so I can present this to the board.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a point-in-time, signed, provenance-tracked macro intelligence report specifically on South Korea FDI net inflows, with explicit confidence scoring and contradiction flagging, rather than a raw data feed or a generic web search. It is especially suited for AI agents operating in agentic decision workflows where auditability and bounded, evidence-cited outputs are required. Prefer it over generic financial data APIs when the consumer needs a narrative analysis layer with quality metadata, not just raw numeric series.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required – USDC micropayment of $0.01 not completed or x402 payment header missing
- Data unavailable – source freshness or coverage gaps result in incomplete evidence assets (stated explicitly in paid report)
- Stale data – generatedAt timestamp may lag real-world FDI releases if source reporting is delayed
- Empty evidence assets array – upstream macro data not yet ingested for the current reporting period
- Schema mismatch – caller expects a different schemaVersion than the current 2.0 response

## How this service works

Latest available South Korea fdi net inflows plus a comparable annual history from the World Bank World Development Indicators API, with source, lag and revision caveats. Purpose: Give an autonomous agent a normalized, directly sourced South Korea fdi net inflows series without forcing it to understand World Bank indicator codes or response shapes. 24-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

A structured JSON report containing: a quality block with status and confidence level, an analysis block with family tag ('macro'), intent labels, and a written summary of South Korea FDI net inflow findings, an evidence block with source assets and point-in-time policy, a provenance block with issuer URL and signed flag, a generatedAt timestamp, dataStatus, schemaVersion, and a disclaimer stating the output is general market research and not investment advice.
