## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability stock-quote-api-quick-quote-e3dfee9a
```

Example prompt: What's the current price and volume for AAPL right now — pull the latest live quote.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a single, fast, low-cost live or latest-available US equity price and volume reading for one ticker symbol and don't require streaming, historical, or options data. At $0.001 per call it is well-suited for high-frequency agent polling or one-off price checks without a recurring subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error or empty result
- Provider unavailability may result in stale or missing data
- Payment failure (402) if x402 micropayment is not properly included
- Rate limiting or timeout on the underlying data provider causing delayed response
- Non-US or delisted tickers may return no data
