## 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 irish-rent-trend-county-ranking-api-a49ec146
```

Example prompt: Show me the top 15 Irish counties ranked by rent growth over the last 12 quarters, filtered to two-bedroom apartments only.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, regularly updated Irish county-level rent benchmarking data with multi-quarter trend analysis. It is the right choice when comparing rent growth across Irish counties, identifying high- or low-rent areas, filtering by bedroom count or property type, and when you need no-API-key pay-per-call access via x402. Prefer this over generic property scrapers when you specifically need structured, ranked county-level Irish rental trend data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid 'beds' value not in allowed enum returns an error or empty results
- Invalid 'sort' value falls back to default or returns an error
- 'n' value outside 1-30 range may return an error or be clamped
- Payment not completed (x402 protocol) results in 402 Payment Required response
- Server unavailable on Railway deployment returns 5xx error

## How this service works

What is the average rent in an Irish area? What is the rent increase limit? What are house prices in a county? Pay-per-call Irish rent and property price data for agents and developers. x402 and MPP, MCP server, no API keys.

## Output

A JSON object with a 'ranking' array where each element contains the county's rank position, county name, latest average rent in euros, and the percentage change in rent over the past 12 quarters (3 years). Results are sorted by the chosen sort field and limited to the requested number of counties.
