## 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-rulemaking-alert-feed-9e081fac -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the Federal Register for any recent rulemaking documents mentioning 'stablecoin' and tell me what stage each is at, which agency issued it, and whether any are open for public comment right now.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs to track or react to US federal regulatory activity on a specific topic — particularly for compliance monitoring, public comment participation, or policy research. It is purpose-built for regulatory document search against the Federal Register, making it more targeted than a general web search for regulatory news. Prefer it over manual web scraping when structured metadata (agency, stage, date, URL) is needed alongside document discovery.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query returns newest documents rather than targeted results — may be too broad
- Obscure or misspelled search terms return zero results
- Federal Register data may have a publication lag of 1-2 days from official issuance
- Very broad search terms may return thousands of results with limited pagination control
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient

## How this service works

Rulemaking alert feed for agents: query any industry term and get the most recent official regulatory documents touching it — what stage each is at, which agency issued it, and where to read the full text. Poll it to catch proposed rules during their public-comment window.

## Output

A JSON object with a count of total matching documents and an array of results, each containing: document type (e.g. Notice, Proposed Rule), title, abstract snippet, list of issuing agencies, URL to the full Federal Register entry, and publication date. Attribution to the Federal Register is included.
