## 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 energybilltoolkit-co-uk-f8b16c83 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What waste collection schedule options exist for postcode SW1A 1AA — show me the distribution of schedules and how ambiguous they are across the address candidates in that postcode?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, low-cost triage of possible waste collection schedules at the postcode level before committing to a full property-level lookup. Ideal when you have a postcode but not a specific house number, or when you want to understand how ambiguous schedule data is for a given area before doing exact resolution.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed UK postcode returns an error or empty result
- Postcode not found in council data returns no schedule options
- Council data unavailability may return incomplete distributions
- Very new or recently changed postcodes may have stale schedule data
- Ambiguity of 100% means no schedule can be determined at postcode level alone

## How this service works

Return postcode-level schedule-option distributions and ambiguity percentages for council-native address candidates. This is a triage endpoint, not address proof and not an exact property lookup.

## Output

A JSON payload containing the distribution of possible waste collection schedule options across council-native address candidates for the given postcode, along with ambiguity percentages indicating how much uncertainty exists about which schedule applies to any given address. This is a triage-level result, not an exact property match.

## Example request

```json
{
 "postcode": "M1 1AA"
