## 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-filing-verification-settlement-evidence-d659c43c
```

Example prompt: Can you check SEC EDGAR and tell me whether AMC Entertainment filed a Form 10-K before January 1, 2023 — I need the filing time, disclosure time, and a verifiable citation showing whether it was resolved or ambiguous?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, auditable proof of whether a specific SEC filing was submitted before a cutoff date — especially for legal, compliance, or financial settlement contexts where offline-verifiable citations are required. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured time-separated evidence (event vs. disclosure vs. cutoff) and an explicit resolution status rather than a narrative answer. Ideal for event-driven trading research, regulatory compliance checks, and litigation support.

## Known failure modes

- Filing not found in EDGAR returns resolution_status: no_authoritative_source with null filed_by_cutoff
- Conflicting records between EDGAR indexes return resolution_status: conflicting
- Ambiguous form type or issuer name returns resolution_status: ambiguous
- Malformed or missing query parameters return an error response
- Very recent filings may not yet be indexed, yielding no_authoritative_source
- Cutoff date parsing errors if date format is not recognized

## How this service works

Settlement evidence v0 for prediction-market and dispute workflows: did an issuer file a given SEC EDGAR form before your cutoff? Returns THREE SEPARATED TIMES (event / disclosure / cutoff), a resolution_status of resolved, no_authoritative_source, ambiguous or conflicting, and candidate_sources. We describe the filing record; we never adjudicate the real-world event. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: event_time (when the filing event occurred), cutoff_time (the evaluated deadline), disclosure_time (when it was publicly disclosed on EDGAR), filed_by_cutoff (boolean or null if unresolvable), resolution_status (one of: resolved, no_authoritative_source, ambiguous, conflicting), candidate_sources (array of authoritative references), and _citation (an offline-verifiable signed citation object for audit or dispute use). Ambiguous or silent cases return explicit unresolved status rather than speculation.
