Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 federal-register-pesticide-agricultural-chemical-rules-feed-cebe4c80
```

Example prompt: Pull all Federal Register pesticide and agricultural chemical rules detected since January 1, 2025, but only show me the ones scored 7 or higher for compliance impact — I want to see titles, effective dates, and links to the original sources.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need raw, machine-readable Federal Register regulatory data specifically scoped to pesticides and agricultural chemicals, with built-in compliance significance scoring and time-based filtering. Prefer it over the LLM digest sibling when you need full structured records, entity IDs for downstream lookups, or want to apply your own filtering logic. Use when building compliance monitoring pipelines, alerting systems, or regulatory audit trails for agrichemical businesses.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing 'since' date-time format returns a 400 validation error
- 'min_significance' outside 1–10 range returns a 400 validation error
- 'limit' outside 1–500 range returns a 400 validation error
- No rules matching the filters returns an empty 'changes' array with count 0
- Payment not included or invalid returns a 402 Payment Required response
- Federal Register data source temporarily unavailable may return a 503 or empty result set

## How this service works

Federal Register final & proposed rules affecting pesticides & agricultural chemicals (Environmental Protection Agency) since a timestamp — covering pesticide, tolerance, fifra, herbicide, insecticide — each scored 1-10 for compliance impact, with effective dates and primary-source links.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of matching rules, the data source identifier, and an array of regulatory change objects — each with a title, type (final/proposed), plain-language summary, compliance significance score (1–10), effective date, detection timestamp, entity ID for further lookup, and a primary-source URL to the Federal Register document.
