## 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-full-text-search-5667d25a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search SEC EDGAR filings for any that mention 'supply chain disruption', filtered to 10-K and 8-K forms, and give me the top 5 results with company names and filing dates.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to search SEC EDGAR filings by content rather than by company or ticker — ideal for thematic research, regulatory keyword scanning, risk factor discovery, or finding which companies disclosed a specific event. Prefer this over direct EDGAR web scraping when you need a pay-per-call, no-account approach with structured JSON output and optional form-type filtering.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if the search term is too specific or not present in any filings
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 handshake fails
- Rate limiting or timeout if EDGAR's full-text search service is overloaded
- Malformed query returns 400-level error
- Form filter typo (e.g. '10k' instead of '10-K') may yield zero results

## How this service works

Pay-per-call AI/data tools settled in USDC on Base via x402. No account, no API key — pay the 402 and receive the result. All endpoints also accept a bare hostname without the https:// prefix.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the original query, the source (efts.sec.gov), a list of matching filings each with CIK(s), filing date, root form type, accession number, and company display name(s), plus a total_hits count indicating how many filings matched overall.
