## 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 financial-data-x402-producer-prices-9a23d5c8
```

Example prompt: What is the latest U.S. Producer Price Index — both core PPI and final-demand PPI year-over-year — right now? Pay the $0.01 USDC fee via x402 to get the current figures.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a no-subscription, pay-per-call source of U.S. PPI macro data accessible via the x402 micropayment protocol — ideal for agents that need infrequent or on-demand inflation lookups without committing to an API key or monthly plan. Prefer it over traditional data APIs when operating in a crypto-native or autonomous agent context that already handles USDC on Base or Solana.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure: insufficient USDC balance or unsupported chain results in 402 Payment Required
- Data unavailability: BLS data not yet released for the target period, reflected in failed_series array
- Invalid query parameters: malformed properties field may return 400 or empty response
- Network timeout: upstream BLS data fetch delay causing slow or failed response

## How this service works

Pay-per-call stock, macro, on-chain, and crypto data over the x402 protocol. USDC on Base or Solana, no API keys, no subscriptions.

## Output

A JSON object containing the as-of date for the data pull, core PPI year-over-year percentage with its reference and comparison dates, PPI final demand year-over-year percentage with its reference and comparison dates, and a list of any failed data series.
