## 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-us-jobs-report-63b5b821 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the US jobs report from BLS for the last 6 months — I want nonfarm payrolls, unemployment rate, and hourly wage data.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, ready-to-consume US labor market statistics (payrolls, unemployment, wages) sourced directly from BLS without needing to scrape or parse government websites. Ideal for macro analysis, economic dashboards, AI agent workflows, or financial research requiring up-to-date official US employment figures. Prefer this over general web-scraping endpoints when you want clean, schema-consistent JSON output at low per-call cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid months value (outside 1-24 range) may return an error or default behavior
- Data may lag by one month as BLS releases reports on a scheduled basis
- Network or upstream BLS data unavailability could return a 5xx error
- Missing or malformed request body may return a 400-level error

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: a 'last' object containing the most recent month's payrolls (employment in thousands and monthly change), hourly wage (index and YoY percent), and unemployment rate; plus arrays of historical monthly records for payrolls, hourly wage, and unemployment covering the requested number of months. Source is attributed to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
