## 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 fred-economic-release-calendar-64d47cd1
```

Example prompt: What US economic data releases are coming up in the next 30 days? I want to see CPI, jobs, GDP, FOMC minutes, and Treasury auction dates so I can plan around market-moving events.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable US economic event dates sourced directly from FRED — ideal for scheduling agents, event-driven trading systems, or macro research workflows that need to act around CPI, employment, GDP, FOMC, or Treasury auction releases. Prefer over manually curated calendars when freshness and government data provenance matter.

## Known failure modes

- days parameter out of range (1-90) returns an error
- FRED upstream API unavailability may cause empty or partial results
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance insufficient — endpoint returns 402
- No releases in the requested window returns an empty list

## How this service works

Upcoming and very-recent US economic data release dates - CPI, employment, GDP, FOMC minutes, Treasury auctions, etc. Useful for scheduling agents around event-driven moves. ?days=14 (default 14, range 1-90). This product uses the FRED(R) API but is not endorsed or certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

## Output

A list of upcoming US economic data release events sourced from FRED, including release names (e.g. CPI, Nonfarm Payrolls, GDP, FOMC Minutes, Treasury auctions), their scheduled release dates, and related metadata — covering a window of 1 to 90 days from today (default 14 days).
