## 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-us-current-account-balance-intelligence-e2ca9d16
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Edge Agents decision intelligence report on the US Current Account Balance — I need the quality status, confidence level, and a summary of the evidence with provenance for a board strategy briefing.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, evidence-backed, and cryptographically signed macro intelligence specifically on the US Current Account Balance — particularly when provenance, confidence scoring, and contradiction flagging are required for downstream decision-making by autonomous agents, boards, or strategy teams. It is especially appropriate when a compliance or audit trail is needed for the data source, or when integrating macro evidence into an AI agent pipeline that requires verifiable, bounded outputs rather than raw statistical feeds.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not completed — endpoint requires $0.01 USDC via x402 protocol; unpaid requests will be rejected with 402
- Data temporarily unavailable — live report generation may fail if underlying macro sources are unreachable
- Stale data window — report reflects point-in-time sourcing; recency limitations are disclosed in the paid response
- Malformed request — non-GET requests or missing headers may return 400 or 405
- Evidence assets empty — assets array may be empty if no fresh evidence is available at query time

## How this service works

Edge Agents provides evidence-backed macro, market and decision intelligence for AI agents, individual leaders and investors, businesses and government teams requiring consulting, procurement and decision support. Machine services are purchasable per request over x402 on 5 settlement rails (Base/USDC, XRPL/RLUSD, Solana/USDC, Arbitrum/USDC and Polygon/USDC).

## Output

A structured JSON object containing: quality status and confidence level for the data, a macro analysis summary with intent tags, evidence assets with point-in-time sourcing policy, a signed provenance block from edge-agents.ai, a generatedAt timestamp, data completeness status, schema version, and a disclaimer that this is general market research rather than investment advice.
