## 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 sec-edgar-document-fetcher-4aad012f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Fetch the Form 4 XML for Tesla (CIK 1318605) from accession number 0001318605-24-000010, filename form4.xml — I want to see the insider buy/sell transactions.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have already identified a specific SEC filing via edgar/filings or edgar/fulltext search and need the actual document content. It is the right choice when you need structured data from Form D (offering amounts), Form C/C-AR (private company financials), or Form 4 (insider transactions) and want machine-readable XML or HTM rather than PDF. Prefer this over general web scraping for EDGAR documents because it is purpose-built, cost-effective at $0.01/call, and returns clean raw content.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid CIK returns document not found error
- Incorrect accession number format causes lookup failure
- Filename mismatch (e.g. wrong extension or case) results in 404
- Requesting a PDF file type which is not preferred and may return binary data
- Accession number references a filing that has been removed or amended
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment not properly handled

## How this service works

Fetch one SEC filing document from EDGAR Archives by { cik, accession, filename } (from edgar/fulltext hit ids or edgar/filings). Returns the raw document — Form D XML carries offering amounts, Form C/C-AR XML carries revenue/net income of private companies, Form 4 XML carries insider buys/sells. Prefer .xml/.htm/.txt files (not PDFs).

## Output

The raw content of the requested SEC filing document — typically XML, HTM, or TXT format. For Form D XML: contains offering amounts and exemption details. For Form C/C-AR XML: contains revenue, net income, and other financials of private companies. For Form 4 XML: contains insider transaction details including shares bought/sold, prices, and dates.
