## 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 us-macro-snapshot-gdp-cpi-unemployment-trade-a9d18cce
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest US macro snapshot — I want to see GDP, GDP growth, CPI inflation, unemployment rate, population, and trade balance, all from World Bank data.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a broad, reliable macro snapshot of the US economy in a single call — covering GDP, inflation, unemployment, population, and trade balance — without assembling multiple data sources. Ideal for agents building economic summaries, briefings, investment context, or dashboards. Prefer the US Bundle endpoint if you also need industry or detailed trade/demographics data. Use this standalone endpoint when only core macro indicators are needed and cost efficiency per call matters.

## Known failure modes

- World Bank data source temporarily unavailable — service may return stale or missing values
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol failure) — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — endpoint returns error response
- Requested data point not yet updated in World Bank dataset — may return previous year's figure
