## 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 vextorium-commodity-historical-price-series-6053f205 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the World Bank Pink Sheet monthly price history for Brent crude oil over the last 24 months, including the high, low, and percent change over that period?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need long-run monthly commodity price history (up to 60 years) from an authoritative source (World Bank Pink Sheet) for commodities like gold, Brent crude, copper, wheat, coffee, aluminum, and other globally tracked raw materials. It is ideal for macroeconomic research, supply chain analysis, investment research, and inflation tracking where official, citation-ready data is required.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled commodity name returns null or empty series
- Requesting more months than available history silently truncates to available data
- Network or upstream World Bank data unavailability causes timeout or error response
- Invalid body format or missing 'nombre' field causes schema validation error
