## 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 ernte-halowerk-com-wholesale-price-lookup-b1d29f89 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the current BLE wholesale price for Tomaten at the Berlin market, and how has it changed compared to the previous period?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a current, granular BLE wholesale price for a single specific fruit or vegetable at a named German wholesale market, especially when you also need the comparable period change and unit-aware pricing. Prefer this over the weekly series endpoint when you want the latest spot observation rather than a historical series, and over the overview endpoint when you need product-level detail rather than a group-level summary.

## Known failure modes

- Product not recognized or too short (minLength 3) — returns validation error
- Market name not in BLE coverage — may return empty result or default to Deutschland
- No current BLE observation available for the product/market/origin combination — empty result
- Origin country not provided in German BLE spelling (e.g. 'Spain' instead of 'Spanien') — may fail to match
- Network or payment failure (x402 protocol) — no data returned

## How this service works

BLE net wholesale observations and comparable changes. Example: product Tomaten. Most prices use EUR/100 kg; cauliflower, endive, lettuce, iceberg lettuce and snake cucumbers use EUR/100 pieces. Mixed groups return separate unit blocks, never a pooled kg price.

## Output

Returns the current BLE-reported wholesale price in EUR per unit (EUR/100 kg for most products; EUR/100 pieces for cauliflower, endive, lettuce, iceberg lettuce, snake cucumbers), the unit basis, the market, the origin, the product, and a comparable change figure showing how the price has shifted relative to a prior reference period. Mixed product groups return separate unit blocks rather than a pooled price.
