## 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-track-records-high-sharpe-1y-d6cd03e1
```

Example prompt: Show me the top-ranked trading strategies from ManyLives that have a Sharpe ratio of at least 1 over the last year — I want the advanced-level list with their verified return percentages across time windows.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pre-filtered, ranked list of strategies that have already passed a minimum risk-adjusted performance bar (Sharpe ≥ 1 over 1 year), rather than building your own filter from raw strategy data. It is especially valuable when you want on-chain-verifiable track records rather than self-reported backtests, and when you need a quick shortlist of advanced strategies for crypto or stocks without managing your own screening infrastructure. Prefer this over generic market data endpoints when your goal is strategy discovery and selection based on risk-adjusted returns.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed or missing request parameters may return a 400 Bad Request
- If no strategies meet the Sharpe ≥ 1 threshold for the period, an empty results list is returned
- Network or Base blockchain connectivity issues may cause delays or 503 Service Unavailable
- Stale computed backtest data (marked 'computed*') may not reflect recent market conditions
