## 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-top-strategies-this-year-51d89dd6
```

Example prompt: Show me the top-ranked crypto trading strategies for this year — I'm a beginner, so focus on the ones with the highest return after costs.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a pre-ranked, cost-adjusted leaderboard of crypto trading strategies for the current year, especially for beginner-oriented research or strategy discovery. Prefer this over general market data endpoints when the user wants comparative performance rankings rather than raw price or indicator data.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or invalid x402 payment header — returns 402 Payment Required
- No strategies found for the current year window — empty results array
- Simulated data flagged with asterisk indicating backtested rather than live performance
- Rate limiting or service unavailability returning 503
- Malformed response if Brain cannot interpret the request context

## How this service works

No forms, no dropdowns. Describe the outcome in plain words and the Brain asks what it must, lists the job, collects offers and recommends one.

## Output

A JSON object containing a ranked list of crypto strategies, each with a unique ID, rank position, return percentages across multiple time windows (e.g. 1h, 5y), the data source (on-chain or simulated), and the ranking criteria used (e.g. highest return after costs over the last year).
