## 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-uk-real-interest-rate-intelligence-1b74c280
```

Example prompt: Pull the current UK real interest rate report from Edge Agents — I need the confidence level, evidence summary, and provenance so I can present it to our CFO today.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a signed, provenance-tracked, evidence-bounded UK real interest rate analysis — particularly when auditability, confidence scoring, and contradiction flagging matter for executive or board-level decisions. Prefer over generic data APIs when you need the source quality and limitations explicitly stated alongside the figure.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — HTTP 402 returned with payment requirements
- Service temporarily unavailable — HTTP 503 or network timeout
- Data freshness issue — report may note stale or unavailable evidence sources in the limitations field
- Malformed request — schema expects correct endpoint call structure
- Rate limiting if called excessively in short period

## How this service works

Latest available United Kingdom real interest rate 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 United Kingdom real interest rate 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 and confidence level (e.g. 'strong'/'high'), an analysis summary with family ('macro') and intents, an evidence block with assets and sourcing policy, provenance metadata including issuer URL and signature status, a generatedAt timestamp, a serviceId, dataStatus ('complete'), schema version (2.0), stated limitations, and a disclaimer clarifying the report is general market research rather than investment advice.
