## 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-market-snapshot-api-c0ba1781
```

Example prompt: What's the current price of SPY along with the last 15 daily OHLCV bars?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-call, no-subscription US equity market snapshot with both a current quote and recent daily OHLCV bars in a single call, especially in x402-compatible agent workflows where micropayment per query is preferred over a monthly API key subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error or empty result
- Bars parameter outside the 10-30 range may be rejected or clamped
- Payment not accepted results in HTTP 402 and no data returned
- Live provider outage may cause stale or unavailable data
- Malformed symbol (not matching ^[A-Z0-9.]{1,10}$) returns a schema validation error

## How this service works

Pay-per-call APIs and a read-only provider check for x402 buyers. Inspect evidence and live terms before a caller-controlled payment; accept delivery with proof.

## Output

A JSON object containing the ticker symbol, current quote price with live provider name, product name ('SML Market Snapshot'), a status field, and an array of daily OHLCV bars each with open, high, low, close, volume, timestamp, and source provider.
