## 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 finnhub-symbol-search-via-gateway-apiosk-com-7f4797b3
```

Example prompt: Search Finnhub for the stock ticker symbol for Apple Inc — I want to confirm the exact symbol and security type listed on US exchanges.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve a company name, ISIN, or CUSIP into a tradeable ticker symbol before making further financial data requests. Ideal as a pre-step for any workflow that starts with a human-readable company name and needs a machine-readable symbol. Prefer over generic search engines when you need structured financial instrument metadata including security type and exchange symbol.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for obscure or misspelled query — returns count 0 with empty result array
- Invalid or unsupported exchange code — may return empty results or error
- Query too vague returns many irrelevant results — caller should refine with exchange parameter
- Payment not processed — 402 response requiring x402 payment header
- Rate limiting or gateway errors returning 5xx

## How this service works

Symbol lookup. Search by ticker, company name, ISIN or CUSIP.

## Output

Returns a count of matching results and an array of instruments, each with a symbol (e.g. 'AAPL'), displaySymbol, human-readable description (company name), and security type (e.g. 'Common Stock').
