## 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

Example prompt: Can you pull the top-ranked trading strategies by Sharpe ratio for the last month from ManyLives — I want to see which ones have the best risk-adjusted returns with their on-chain verified performance data?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pre-ranked, risk-adjusted leaderboard of trading strategies filtered by Sharpe ratio on a monthly cadence, especially when verifiability of backtests via on-chain records matters. Prefer this over raw market data endpoints when the goal is strategy selection rather than price discovery, and over generic screeners when you need a curated universe of 2000+ crypto and stock strategies with locked track records.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed via x402 — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid or missing query parameters — may return empty or malformed results
- Strategy data temporarily unavailable on-chain — stale or partial results
- Rate limiting or network timeout from Base network queries
- Response schema mismatch if strategy universe updates reduce available results

## Output
