Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability macrolens-labor-market-analysis-api-be49c70c -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Pull a MacroLens labor market analysis starting from January 2020 — I want to see AI-interpreted employment and workforce trends from FRED and World Bank data for that period.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need AI-interpreted labor market macroeconomic data combining FRED and World Bank sources in a single call, rather than querying raw data APIs yourself and building your own analysis pipeline. Ideal for agents that need synthesized employment insights quickly without building custom LLM + data pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed 'start' date string returns an error or empty data
- Invalid date format causes request failure
- Upstream FRED or World Bank data unavailable for the specified period results in partial or failed response
- Payment not processed via x402 on Base results in 402 Payment Required
- Requested time range too recent with no available data yet
