## 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 return-processing-cost-per-case-distribution-summary-362a0b54 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Give me a distribution summary for return processing cost per case using these 4 records: labour costs of 100, 110, 95, 120; postage costs of 50, 55, 48, 60; other costs of 20, 22, 18, 25; and processed returns of 10, 11, 9, 12.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a statistical distribution summary (min, max, mean, median, percentiles) specifically for the return processing cost per case KPI in a retail context, and you already have the raw cost components (labour, postage, other) and processed return counts as structured records. It is ideal for batch analysis of up to 200 periods or locations without requiring platform access or live rate feeds.

## Known failure modes

- Fewer than 2 rows supplied — minimum 2 records required
- processed_returns value of 0 causes division-by-zero for cost-per-case calculation (field has exclusiveMinimum:0)
- Rows exceeding 200 items will be rejected
- Non-numeric or missing required fields (labour_cost, postage_cost, other_cost, processed_returns) cause validation errors
- Extremely large cost values near the 1 trillion maximum may cause precision issues
