Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability synthora-defi-security-incidents-oracle-a0dfd5f7 -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Before I deposit into Curve Finance, can you pull the DeFi security incident history for 'curve' going back 365 days so I can see if it's been hacked or exploited?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured DeFi-specific security incident data (hacks, exploits, rugs) sourced from DeFiLlama's curated dataset, particularly for pre-deposit due diligence or protocol risk scoring. Prefer it over generic web search when you need structured, machine-readable incident records rather than news articles.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled protocol name returns empty result set
- days_back value of 0 or negative may return no results
- DeFiLlama upstream API unavailability causes fetch failure
- Protocol with no recorded incidents returns empty result (not an error)
- Very long days_back values may be capped or slow to respond
