## 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 scriptmasterlabs-lobbying-data-api-89b6f3b2
```

Example prompt: Pull up federal lobbying records for the healthcare issue area (HCR) — show me up to 10 results and include any filings where PhRMA is listed as the client.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need pay-per-call, micropayment-gated access to federal lobbying disclosure data filtered by LDA issue codes, client organizations, or registrant firms. It is ideal for compliance research, political intelligence, or advocacy mapping where you pay only $0.001 USDC per query rather than a subscription. Prefer this over subscription-based political data APIs when query volume is low or sporadic.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if no valid x402 payment or API key header is provided
- Empty result set if the issue code, client, or registrant name does not match any records
- Invalid LDA issue code returns no results or an error
- limit parameter out of range (must be 1–25) causes validation error
- Network timeout or service unavailability from Render hosting

## How this service works

Pay-per-call crypto, RWA, federal, SEC, Section 8/HUD housing, and compliance APIs via x402. Primary: USDC on Base (eip155:8453). Also accepts Global Dollar (USDG) on Robinhood Chain (eip155:4663) via sovereign X-PAYMENT-TX. Hyphen routes only (e.g. /x402/gas-tracker, /x402/pha-lookup, /x402/sec-8k). MARKETPLACE REVIEW: use free /x402/playground/* (no key, no payment). Production /x402/* returns 402 unless paid via x402 or X-Api-Market-Key / X-API-Key from seller dashboard.

## Output

Returns a list of federal lobbying disclosure records matching the query filters, including client names, registrant (lobbying firm) names, and LDA issue area codes. Response schema is minimal (example: {}) indicating the structure may vary but typically includes filing metadata and party identifiers.
