Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 hazardpulse-natural-disaster-alert-signal-56338a2b
```

Example prompt: What's the current natural hazard risk level for Japan — are there any active red or orange disaster alerts like earthquakes, floods, or typhoons I should know about?

## When to prefer this

Use HazardPulse when you need a ready-to-use, aggregated natural disaster risk signal from authoritative official feeds (GDACS + USGS) without building your own feed parser. Ideal for risk, insurance, logistics, or supply-chain agents that need a simple pay-per-call hazard check at the country or global level. Prefer this over raw GDACS or USGS APIs when you want a pre-scored, normalized alert level rather than raw event lists.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country name returns an error or falls back to global scope
- GDACS or USGS feed outage may result in stale or incomplete data
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 returns a 402 Payment Required response
- Passing an unsupported HTTP method returns an error (only GET/HEAD/DELETE accepted)
- Highly granular sub-national queries not supported — country level only

## How this service works

Global (or per-country) natural-hazard / disaster alert signal (optional ?country=)

## Output

Returns a structured hazard signal object including: a named hazard level (CALM / ACTIVE / ELEVATED / SEVERE), a 0–10 alert score, counts of active Red/Orange/Green GDACS alerts, a breakdown of active events by hazard type (earthquake, flood, wildfire, tropical cyclone, volcano, drought), a list of the most significant named events with country, date, alert level, and source, plus the geographic scope (global or specific country).
