Example prompt: What is the latest month-over-month CPI inflation rate for Metropolitan Lima, Peru according to BCRP data?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the most recent Metropolitan Lima, Peru month-over-month CPI inflation percentage specifically sourced from INEI via BCRP. It is ideal for purchasing-power analysis, economic dashboards, and inflation monitoring focused on Lima rather than national Peru figures. Prefer it over general web scraping or news sources when you need structured, attributable macroeconomic data with a known series ID (PN01271PM).

## Known failure modes

- No data available if BCRP has not yet published the latest monthly figure
- Network timeout if BCRP upstream source is temporarily unavailable
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 per-call fee
- Stale data if BCRP delays publication of the current month's CPI release
- Data gap warnings if the monthly series has missing observations
