## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability fomc-economic-release-calendar-4ac0b96a
```

Example prompt: Pull me the full macro event calendar — FOMC meetings plus CPI, NFP, GDP, PCE, and retail sales release dates — from July 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025, with days-until countdowns for each event.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a unified view of market-moving macro calendar events — both Fed policy decisions and key US economic data releases — in a single call with countdown timers. Prefer this over ticker-specific endpoints when the user is asking about broad market catalysts rather than individual stock events. Ideal for traders, portfolio managers, or agents building macro-aware context for any asset class.

## Known failure modes

- Missing 'from' or 'to' query parameters returns a 400 error
- Invalid date format (non-ISO 8601) returns a validation error
- Date range with no events returns an empty list
- FRED temporarily unavailable for a specific release — reported explicitly rather than silently dropped
- Very wide date ranges may reduce accuracy of future tentative release dates

## How this service works

FOMC meeting dates and major US economic release dates (CPI, non-farm payrolls, GDP, PCE, retail sales) in one call, each with a days-until countdown, between 'from' and 'to' -- the market-wide catalysts that move every ticker at once. FOMC dates from the Fed's official calendar; release dates live from FRED, and a temporarily-unavailable release is reported explicitly, not silently dropped. Not ticker-specific. $0.01/call.

## Output

A list of dated events between the requested date range, each tagged by event type (FOMC meeting, CPI release, NFP release, GDP release, PCE release, retail sales), along with a days-until countdown. Any temporarily unavailable releases are explicitly flagged rather than silently omitted.
