# Strait of Hormuz Daily Transit Analytics

> Strait of Hormuz Daily Transit Analytics is a paid API for AI agents from war-tracker.com, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns daily aggregate analytics for Strait of Hormuz vessel transits over a rolling window (1–14 days), including per-day direction-split counts, top 10 operators, and top 10 flags with sanctions/watchlist breakdowns.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://war-tracker.com/api/v1/hormuz/summary

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 war-tracker-com-af68ecbb
```

Example prompt: Pull me the Strait of Hormuz transit summary for the last 7 days — I want the daily direction-split counts, top 10 operators with their sanctioned crossings share, and top flag breakdowns.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a consolidated multi-dimensional view of Strait of Hormuz traffic in a single API call — combining daily time-series, operator-level, and flag-level breakdowns. It is preferred over per-vessel or per-event endpoints when the goal is aggregate trend analysis, sanctions exposure monitoring across operators, or geopolitical shipping intelligence rather than tracking a specific vessel.

## Known failure modes

- days parameter outside 1–14 range returns 422 validation error
- Missing or invalid x402 payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Data lag if AIS feed from ShipTracker is delayed, potentially returning incomplete counts for the most recent UTC day
- Empty arrays if no transit data is available for the requested window
- Network timeout on slow connections given the multi-rollup response size

## How this service works

War-Tracker is a live war tracker map showing real-time military strikes and conflict events worldwide. Unbiased, uncensored OSINT: track Ukraine, Middle East, and global conflicts with video evidence as they happen.

## Output

A single JSON response containing three rollups: (1) daily_counts — an array of per-UTC-day objects with direction_0, direction_1, direction_unknown, total, sanctioned, watchlisted, and distinct_operators counts; (2) top_operators — top 10 operator companies ranked by crossing count with sanctioned_crossings share over the window; (3) top_flags — top 10 flag states by crossing count, along with days_requested as a confirmation field.
