## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability manylives-me-fx-rates-a214f53d
```

Example prompt: What are today's official exchange rates for GBP, JPY, and AUD with USD as the base currency — and how much would 500 USD be worth in each?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need official daily reference FX rates (not real-time mid-market or live tick data) for a broad basket of ~30 currencies, especially when you also need to convert a specific amount in the same call. It is ideal for financial reporting, invoicing, and budget planning where official daily rates suffice over live streaming quotes.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported currency code returns an error or empty rates object
- Invalid amount string may return an error
- Rates may be one business day behind on weekends or public holidays
- Network or upstream rate-feed outage returns a 5xx error
