## 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 world-bank-economic-indicators-by-country-e09fa8a9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the World Bank time series for GDP per capita and unemployment in Brazil over the last 10 years — I want to see how both have moved together.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need official, authoritative macroeconomic or development time-series data for a specific country sourced directly from the World Bank. It is ideal for economic research, policy analysis, country briefings, and trend visualization. Prefer it over web scraping or general search when you need structured, multi-year numeric data with consistent methodology. It supports both friendly aliases (e.g. 'gdp') and raw World Bank indicator codes for flexibility.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country code returns an error — use ISO 2- or 3-letter codes (e.g. 'US', 'BRA')
- Unknown indicator alias or World Bank code returns a lookup error
- Years value outside 1–60 range may be rejected or clamped
- World Bank data gaps for certain countries or years may return nulls in the series
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient

## How this service works

What are this country's headline economics? World Bank time series for GDP, GDP per capita, population, inflation, unemployment, life expectancy, CO2 per capita or internet penetration, by plain-English alias or raw indicator code

## Output

Returns a time-series array of annual values for the requested World Bank indicator for the specified country, covering up to 60 years of historical data. Each data point includes the year and the indicator value. The response maps plain-English aliases (like 'gdp' or 'life_expectancy') to their underlying World Bank series codes automatically.
