## 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 thebotwire-cftc-feed-aa22c0fd
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest CFTC enforcement actions and fraud charges from the past 24 hours — I want to see any new swap dealer violations or derivatives market actions.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or recent CFTC regulatory announcements — especially enforcement actions, fraud charges, derivatives oversight, and swap dealer compliance updates — without scraping the CFTC website directly. Ideal for compliance agents, legal research tools, and financial monitoring workflows that need structured, freshness-controlled access to CFTC news. Prefer this over general financial news APIs when the specific source (CFTC) matters for regulatory accuracy.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if freshness window is too narrow and no new announcements exist
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. malformed duration string) may cause request failure
- Limit exceeding 50 may be rejected
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 per-call fee
- Source 'cftc' filter may return empty if CFTC site is temporarily unavailable upstream

## How this service works

Commodity Futures Trading Commission announcements for finance agents: derivatives and commodity market enforcement actions, fraud charges, swap dealer rules and market oversight decisions.

## Output

Returns a list of CFTC announcements sourced from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, including enforcement actions, fraud charges, swap dealer rule updates, and market oversight decisions. Each item typically includes a title, summary, publication date, and source URL. Results can be filtered by search query, capped at a specified limit (up to 50), and scoped to a freshness window (e.g. 30m, 2h, 24h, 3d).
