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 johto-sec-8-k-filings-api-e1b78e8f
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 5 SEC 8-K filings for Tesla (ticker TSLA) since January 1, 2025, so I can see what material events they've reported.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable SEC 8-K filing metadata for a specific public company, especially when you have the ticker or CIK already and want fast lookup with optional date filtering. Prefer this over scraping SEC EDGAR directly, which is slower and requires parsing HTML. It is pay-per-successful-call, so you are not charged on empty results or failures — making it safe to probe. Choose this over a 13-F endpoint when you need current event disclosures (earnings, leadership changes, agreements) rather than quarterly institutional holdings.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent ticker returns no results (rows: 0) without charge
- Invalid CIK format rejected by schema validation before call
- Both ticker and CIK provided simultaneously — schema requires one or the other
- Limit outside 1–20 range is rejected by pattern validation
- Since date in wrong format (not YYYY-MM-DD) fails schema validation
- Company with no 8-K filings in range returns empty data array
- SEC EDGAR upstream unavailable causes fetch failure (not charged)

## How this service works
