## 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 prereason-gold-market-dashboard-3da5f40d
```

Example prompt: Pull me today's gold market briefing in JSON — I want GLD price, the World Bank gold price per ounce, real 10-year Treasury rate, speculator positioning, and how the miners ETFs are correlated, so I can see what's driving gold right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pre-reasoned, multi-factor gold market briefing that combines ETF prices, spot gold, macro rates, speculator positioning, and miner performance in a single call — rather than assembling those individually from disparate sources. Especially valuable when you want pre-computed correlations between gold and its key drivers (real rates, dollar, COT positioning) without building that analysis yourself. Prefer this over generic market data APIs when the user's intent is to understand what is moving gold, not just its price.

## Known failure modes

- Date not on record: returns error if requested historical date has no data
- Invalid date format: query param must match YYYY-MM-DD pattern exactly
- Invalid format param: only 'json' or 'markdown' accepted
- Payment failure: x402 payment of $0.03 USDC not completed
- World Bank data lag: monthly average gold price may not reflect intra-month spot moves

## How this service works

Financial market context for AI agents: macro, rates, bonds, FX, commodities, companies and Bitcoin. One API call returns a briefing with the reasoning already in it.

## Output

Returns a structured briefing with 12 financial metrics including GLD ETF price, World Bank monthly gold price per troy ounce, 10-year real Treasury rate, UUP dollar fund, GDX and GDXJ miner ETFs, TLT long Treasury fund, CFTC non-commercial gold futures net positioning, GLD/GDX ratio, gold/silver ratio, Fed balance sheet, and 10-year nominal yield — plus 4 pre-computed correlations between these factors and the gold price, delivered in either JSON or token-optimized markdown.
