Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability whatchuneed-historical-ohlcv-price-data-c22c7ab4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the last 100 daily candlestick bars (open, high, low, close, volume) for AAPL so I can analyze its recent price history?

Choose this endpoint when you need historical OHLCV candlestick data for a stock or crypto symbol and want a simple pay-per-call model via the x402 protocol without managing a dedicated financial data API subscription. Ideal for agents doing ad-hoc backtesting, charting, or price-trend analysis without committing to a monthly plan.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid symbol returns an error response
- Unsupported interval string may return empty data or an error
- outputsize exceeding provider limits may be capped or rejected
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in HTTP 402 before data is returned
- Network or upstream data provider outage returns a 5xx error
