## 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 strale-eu-regulation-search-378f2e0d
```

Example prompt: Search EU regulations about artificial intelligence — I need to find any regulations or directives adopted in 2024 on that topic.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover or enumerate EU legal instruments (regulations, directives, decisions) by topic, year, or type — especially for compliance research, legal audits, or regulatory landscape mapping across 27 EU member states. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured, curated EU legislative data with an audit trail.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for the given query keywords — try broader or alternative terms
- Invalid 'type' filter value — must be one of: regulation, directive, or decision
- Invalid 'year' format — must be a 4-digit year string such as '2024'
- Missing required 'query' parameter — search topic must be provided
- Network or upstream data source unavailability returns a 5xx error

## How this service works

The trust layer for AI agents — 250+ independently tested data capabilities across 27 countries. Execute capabilities via REST, MCP, A2A, or x402 micropayments. Every call returns an audit record with cryptographic chain hashing.

## Output

Returns a list of matching EU legal instruments (regulations, directives, or decisions) including titles, types, adoption years, and summaries, filtered by the provided keywords, type, and/or year. Each call includes a cryptographic audit record.
