# Edge Agents – Switzerland Macro Reserve Buffer (Months of Imports)

> Edge Agents – Switzerland Macro Reserve Buffer (Months of Imports) is a paid API for AI agents from pay.edge-agents.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns evidence-backed analysis of Switzerland's foreign exchange reserve buffer measured in months of import coverage, with provenance, confidence scoring, and contradiction flagging.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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-switzerland-macro-reserve-buffer-months-of-imports-3c4a0e7f
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Edge Agents decision intelligence report on Switzerland's foreign reserve buffer — specifically how many months of imports the SNB's reserves cover — and give me the confidence rating and any flagged contradictions.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a signed, provenance-verified, evidence-bounded assessment of Switzerland's foreign reserve adequacy specifically expressed as months of import coverage — a standard IMF/BIS macro liquidity metric. Prefer it over raw central bank data scrapes when you need structured confidence scoring, contradiction flagging, and an audit trail suitable for board-level or autonomous agent decision workflows. It is especially suited for country risk, treasury, and macro monitoring use cases requiring traceability.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC balance — returns HTTP 402 Payment Required
- Service temporarily unavailable due to upstream data source refresh — report may indicate incomplete data status
- No fresh underlying data available — evidence assets array may be empty with limitations noted in report
- Invalid or malformed request — returns error indicating missing required parameters
- Rate limiting if called excessively in short window

## How this service works

Latest available Switzerland reserve buffer 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 Switzerland reserve buffer 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 JSON object containing: quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level (e.g. 'high'); an analysis summary including family classification ('macro'), intents, and a narrative finding on Switzerland's reserve buffer; evidence assets and policy metadata; provenance with issuer URL and signed flag; generatedAt timestamp; serviceId; dataStatus; schemaVersion; and a disclaimer noting this is market research, not investment advice.
