## 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

```

Example prompt: What is the latest German national food CPI for meat products — can you look up category CP012 from the Destatis data and tell me the monthly and annual change?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need the German national food CPI (base 2020=100) as published by Destatis in dataset 61111-0004, using COICOP 2013 category codes. Prefer this over HICP endpoints when you need the domestic German index rather than the harmonized European measure, or when working with official Destatis rounded index series. Not suitable for Austrian CPI, cross-country HICP comparisons, or basket-cost modeling.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported category code (outside CP01–CP01229 or not a recognized COICOP 2013 code) — returns error or empty result
- COICOP 2018 codes submitted instead of COICOP 2013 codes — may not be recognized
- Data not yet published for the most recent month — returns last available period
- German keyword not matching any known food category — no results returned
- Request with category string shorter than 2 or longer than 60 characters — validation error
