## 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 polyform-legal-regulatory-watch-proposed-rules-rulemaking-monitor-bf411798
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest proposed rules and agency actions related to stablecoins from Polyform's regulatory watch feed so I can see what's been filed recently.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call feed of recent US regulatory documents for a specific topic without setting up an account or API key. Ideal for AI agents doing compliance monitoring, legal research, or regulatory alerting on a per-query basis. Prefer this over full regulatory databases when you want fast, cheap, topic-scoped lookups rather than bulk downloads or full-text search.

## Known failure modes

- Topic keyword returns zero results if no recent regulatory activity matches
- Missing or invalid 'topic' query parameter may return an error or empty dataset
- Stale results if the underlying regulatory feed hasn't been updated recently
- Network or payment failure (402) if USDC micropayment is not completed via x402 protocol

## How this service works

Pay-per-call data endpoints for AI agents. USDC on Base via x402. No account, no API key — one micropayment per call.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of matching documents and an array of regulatory documents, each including the date filed, document type (e.g. Proposed Rule), title, and issuing agency name — covering recent US federal regulatory activity for the requested topic.
