## 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 stratalize-consumer-sentiment-benchmark-75faac3a
```

Example prompt: Give me a full read on current consumer health — sentiment, spending, and saving — so I know if the signal is strong, moderate, or weak right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a macro agent, portfolio manager, or analyst needs a single aggregated consumer health snapshot combining sentiment and spending signals — especially when integrity attestation is required for regulated or automated workflows. Prefer over building your own FRED pipeline when you need UMich, Conference Board, PCE, retail sales, and saving rate in one low-latency call.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid focus enum value returns 400 bad request
- FRED data temporarily unavailable results in upstream timeout or 503
- Missing or expired payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Stale data if FRED has not published latest release yet
