# KiHustle Value-at-Risk Historical Calculator

> KiHustle Value-at-Risk Historical Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from kihustle.tech, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Computes historical Value-at-Risk (VaR) for a portfolio given a series of historical returns and a confidence level

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 kihustle-value-at-risk-historical-calculator-8c532380 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Calculate the historical Value-at-Risk for this set of daily returns — [-0.02, 0.01, -0.015, 0.03, -0.04, 0.005, -0.01] — at a 95% confidence level.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call historical VaR computation without standing up your own risk analytics infrastructure. Suitable for agents that periodically need a single VaR figure from historical return data at a known confidence level. Prefer alternatives (e.g. dedicated quant finance platforms) if you need parametric VaR, Monte Carlo simulation, conditional VaR (CVaR/ES), multi-asset covariance-based risk, or rich error diagnostics.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or null returns array — endpoint may return an error or unexpected result
- Confidence level outside [0,1] range — invalid parameter likely causes a processing error
- Non-numeric values in returns array — schema validation failure
- Server-side computation error returning generic success status without meaningful VaR value
- Response schema is minimal and may not expose detailed error messages distinguishing input errors from runtime failures

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a result field indicating the computed Value-at-Risk metric and a status field confirming successful processing. The VaR figure represents the maximum expected loss not exceeded at the given confidence level over the historical return distribution.
