## 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

Example prompt: Can you search FDA food recalls for 'peanut butter' and tell me what products have been recalled, why, and what their recall classification is?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search the FDA food recall database by product name, ingredient, or reason keyword. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, machine-readable recall data including classification and status directly from the openFDA source. Best for food safety checks, compliance monitoring, or ingredient verification.

## Known failure modes

- No matching recalls found for query — 'found' is false and recalls array is empty
- Invalid or malformed query parameter returns an error or empty result
- openFDA upstream API unavailability causes a failed or timeout response
- Very broad queries may return truncated results limited by the API's default page size

## How this service works

FDA food recall search (openFDA) - product, reason, firm, classification and status

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a boolean 'found' flag, the interpreted query string, the data source (openFDA), total number of matching recalls, and an array of recall objects each containing product details, reason for recall, recalling firm, classification (Class I/II/III), and recall status.
