## 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 orchard-data-stock-quote-api-4c4330c9
```

Example prompt: What's the current stock quote for NVDA — give me the last price, today's high and low, volume, and how much it's moved in percent?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs lightweight, per-call real-time stock quote data without a monthly subscription — especially when cost control via micropayments (x402/USDC) matters, or when embedding market data lookups into autonomous agent workflows where pay-per-use billing is preferable to flat-rate plans.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error or empty quote
- Missing required 'symbol' query parameter causes a 400-level error
- Payment failure via x402 (insufficient USDC balance) blocks access and returns a 402 status
- Rate limiting or worker timeout under high load may return 5xx errors
- Symbols for non-US or delisted equities may return no data
