## 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 messari-token-vesting-schedule-bf054dae
```

Example prompt: Pull the full token vesting schedule for Arbitrum from Messari — I want to see every tranche, the unlock dates, amounts, which category each belongs to like team or investor, and what percentage of supply each represents.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the complete, multi-tranche vesting schedule for a crypto asset — all past and future unlock events across all categories. Prefer this over the 'upcoming unlocks' endpoint when you need historical context, full supply distribution breakdown by category (team, investors, ecosystem), or a comprehensive tokenomics analysis rather than just next scheduled events.

## Known failure modes

- Asset not found or not tracked — returns 404 or empty data if the assetId is invalid or Messari does not track vesting for that asset
- No vesting schedule available — some assets may not have structured token unlock data, returning an empty schedule array
- Authentication/payment failure — x402 payment not processed, returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting — too many requests in a short window, returns 429
- Malformed assetId — passing an unrecognized slug returns an error
