## 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 manylives-me-public-holidays-business-days-calculator-6c2af8ef
```

Example prompt: What are the public holidays in Australia for 2026, and how many business days are there between December 1 and December 31?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need official public holiday data for a specific country and year, especially when you also need to compute business days between two dates excluding both weekends and national holidays. It is ideal for scheduling, SLA calculation, payroll, and project planning use cases where regional holiday accuracy matters.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'country' parameter returns an error response
- Invalid or unsupported 2-letter country code may return an empty holidays list or error
- Invalid date format for 'from' or 'to' parameters may cause a parsing error
- Providing 'to' without 'from' or vice versa may return only the holiday list without business day count
- Payment failure (x402) prevents access to results

## How this service works

Public holidays for a country and year, and optionally the number of business days between two dates (weekends and national holidays excluded).

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the year, country code, a list of holidays (each with a date in YYYY-MM-DD format, holiday name, and a boolean indicating if it is a national holiday), and optionally the count of business days between the requested from and to dates.
