## 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 gloom-finance-terminal-story-news-item-by-id-83806b58
```

Example prompt: Pull up the Gloom story with ID abc123 — I want to see its topic, sentiment, scope, and when it was first published.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a specific Gloom story ID and need detailed metadata — topic, sentiment, scope, timestamps, and source — for a single financial news item or filing. Prefer this over search endpoints when the ID is already known.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown story ID returns a 404 or empty data response
- Malformed ID parameter may return a 400 error
- Story may have expired or been removed from the index
- Payment not processed (x402) results in a 402 payment required response
- Rate limiting may occur under high-frequency access
