## 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 tobacco-nicotine-regulatory-compliance-brief-f72ac845
```

Example prompt: Give me a compliance digest of tobacco, nicotine, and vaping regulations that have come out since January 1, 2025 — I need to know which rules actually matter and any key deadlines.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a concise, human-readable compliance summary for tobacco, nicotine, or vaping regulations rather than raw Federal Register data. Prefer this over the raw rules feed when you want LLM-curated highlights with deadlines called out, and when your audience is a compliance officer or business owner rather than a data pipeline. Choose this over general regulatory endpoints when the domain is specifically tobacco/nicotine/vaping.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid 'since' datetime format returns a 400 error
- Payment of $0.25 USDC not provided or rejected returns 402 Payment Required
- No regulatory changes found in the window may return an empty or minimal brief
- LLM generation failure may fall back to template-based generation (reflected in generatedBy field)
- Future or far-past 'since' dates may yield unexpected results

## How this service works

LLM-written compliance digest of the tobacco, nicotine & vaping products rules in the window that actually matter (tobacco, cigarette, nicotine, vaping, e-cigarette) — issuing agency named, deadlines called out.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: a 'brief' field with an LLM-written plain-English summary of the most impactful tobacco/nicotine/vaping regulatory changes in the window; a 'generatedBy' field indicating whether an LLM or template produced it; and a 'basedOnChanges' integer showing how many underlying Federal Register changes were considered.
