## 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 govspendpulse-us-federal-contract-opportunities-search-0710a402
```

Example prompt: Find me active federal contract opportunities on SAM.gov for cybersecurity services under NAICS code 541519 with small business set-asides — show me what's open, the deadlines, and any bid guidance.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover currently active, open federal contract opportunities and solicitations from SAM.gov — especially when filtering by NAICS code, set-aside type, or agency. Prefer this over award/spending search endpoints when the goal is finding bids to compete for rather than analyzing past contract awards.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if keyword or NAICS code is too narrow or misspelled
- SAM.gov data lag may mean very recently posted opportunities are missing
- Set-aside filter may return empty results if no matching opportunities currently active
- Broad keyword queries may return large noisy result sets requiring further filtering
- Rate-limited or payment failure if USDC transaction not processed

## How this service works

Federal contract opportunity / solicitation / RFP search — active open opportunities from SAM.gov. Returns deadlines, set-aside types, NAICS codes, and bid guidance for vendors actively seeking federal business, for business-development and capture agents.

## Output

Returns a list of active open federal contract opportunities from SAM.gov including solicitation numbers, titles, issuing agencies, response deadlines, set-aside designations (e.g. 8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB), applicable NAICS codes, and contextual bid guidance to help vendors decide whether and how to pursue each opportunity.
