## 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 forgemesh-politician-stock-trades-tracker-fe94dfd6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull up the most recent stock trades filed by House members — show me any purchases or sales of NVDA in 2026, up to 20 results.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, filterable access to US House member stock trading disclosures — especially for agent workflows that monitor political trading patterns, screen by ticker or politician, or compare trades against market events. Prefer this over manual scraping of House Clerk records when you need clean JSON output with amount brackets and notification dates already parsed.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid enum value for 'type' field returns validation error
- No trades found for the given filter combination returns empty trades array
- Ticker not found in disclosures returns zero results with matched:0
- Date range with 'since' after 'until' may return empty or error
- Limit exceeding maximum of 100 rejected with validation error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC returns 402 Payment Required

## How this service works

Politician stock trading tracker: disclosed securities transactions by US House members, filterable by name, ticker, transaction type, state, and date range. Each row carries the asset, owner (member, spouse, joint), transaction and notification dates, and the reported amount bracket. Structured JSON built for agents watching political trading activity.

## Output

A JSON object containing a list of matched trades (each with asset name, ticker, member name, owner type, transaction type, transaction date, notification date, amount range bracket, state/district, and document ID), plus metadata including total matched count, returned count, years and chambers covered, and a public domain attribution statement.
