## 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 mesh-heurist-xyz-0920a225 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the current funding rate and 7-day open interest trend for BTC on Binance perp — is OI trending up or down, and what's the annualized APR?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need both open interest trend context AND the current funding rate for a Binance perpetual futures symbol in a single call. Prefer this over the standalone funding-rate endpoint when you want historical OI context (7-day 4-hour trend) alongside spot funding data, useful for assessing crowded trades or funding arbitrage opportunities.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or unsupported symbol returns an error or empty result
- Symbol provided without USDT suffix may be normalized automatically, but ambiguous tickers could fail
- Binance API downtime or rate limits may cause temporary unavailability
- Network timeout for slow connections
- Incorrect symbol format (e.g. lowercase) may return no data
