## 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 whatchuneed-macro-interest-rates-6242fbcb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current macro interest rates? I need the latest central bank benchmark rates — fetch the current Fed funds rate and any other major central bank rates available right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-call access to macro interest rate data without maintaining a subscription to a financial data provider. Ideal for AI agents that infrequently need rate data and want to pay only when queried, using USDC via the x402 protocol. Best suited for lookups of current or recent central bank rates rather than deep historical time-series analysis.

## Known failure modes

- Vague or unrecognized query string may return incomplete or irrelevant rate data
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 response and no data returned
- Upstream data source unavailability may cause delayed or stale rate information
- Malformed input object missing the required 'input' field returns a validation error
