## 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 macro-unemployment-report-api-x402-c682bc25
```

Example prompt: Pull me the latest global unemployment report covering 20 economies from 2015 to 2025 — give it to me in JSON format so I can work with the data, including the trend lines and country rankings.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a ready-made, multi-economy unemployment analysis report with derived metrics (trends, R², volatility, rankings) rather than raw time-series data. It is ideal for agents that require no account setup or API key management, can pay per-fetch in USDC via x402, and need flexible output formats for downstream processing or human-readable presentation. Prefer alternatives if you need real-time unemployment data, a single-country deep dive, or data beyond the 20 covered economies.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance — x402 payment rejected, report not returned
- Invalid format parameter — must be one of html, json, csv, summary-csv
- Service unavailability — upstream report generation or data source temporarily down
- Network timeout — report fetch times out before delivery

## How this service works

Machine-to-machine macroeconomic report API. Pay per fetch in USDC over x402. No accounts, no API keys.

## Output

Returns a structured report on global unemployment rates (indicator SL.UEM.TOTL.ZS) covering 20 economies over 2015–2025. Depending on format chosen, includes: key findings, country ranking table, share of group total, trend lines with R² values, volatility metrics, a full year-by-year data matrix, and coverage/data-quality disclosures. Available as HTML, JSON, tidy long-panel CSV, or summary-CSV with one derived-metrics row per economy.
