## 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-growth-intelligence-4702a097
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest US growth intelligence report from Edge Agents — I need the macro momentum signals, confidence level, and any contradictions flagged, with provenance, for a strategy briefing today.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need bounded, evidence-backed US macroeconomic growth intelligence with explicit provenance, confidence levels, and stated contradictions — rather than raw data feeds, unverified summaries, or general-purpose LLM economic commentary. Ideal for business leaders, strategy teams, boards, and autonomous agents that require decision-ready macro intelligence with auditability and source traceability at a low per-call cost.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — 402 response requiring x402 payment
- Service temporarily unavailable — 503 or timeout
- No fresh evidence available — dataStatus may indicate incomplete or stale data
- Provenance signature validation failure — signed field false or missing
- Empty evidence assets array — sources not yet populated for this report cycle

## How this service works

Premium industrial-cycle synthesis from direct Federal Reserve G.17 industrial production and capacity utilisation with multi-window momentum. Purpose: Assess directly observed US industrial growth pressure while clearly separating it from a complete GDP nowcast. 6-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing a quality status and confidence rating, a macro analysis summary with intent signals (momentum, evidence, cycle, growth), a list of evidence assets with point-in-time sourcing policy, a signed provenance object from edge-agents.ai, a generatedAt timestamp, schema version, data status, and stated limitations — never investment advice.
