## 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 x402-factory-com-product-recalls-api-59c51c38
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest food and drug recalls from the past month — especially anything severity class I — and check if there are any recalls mentioning 'peanut' or 'listeria'?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a single, normalized view of recalls across multiple agencies (FDA, USDA, CPSC) without having to query each government API separately. Ideal when you need unified severity classification, keyword search across product/brand/hazard fields, or category-filtered recall monitoring. Prefer over direct openFDA or FSIS APIs when cross-agency normalization and consistent schema are required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid date format for 'since' parameter returns 400
- Query string too short (< 2 chars) or too long (> 120 chars) returns validation error
- Invalid category enum value returns 400
- No matching recalls returns empty results array
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402

## How this service works

Product recalls across FDA, USDA, and CPSC in one normalized schema — openFDA enforcement reports (food/drug/device), USDA FSIS recalls, and CPSC consumer-product recalls normalized to one shape with a unified severity class (I highest — FDA/USDA classes verbatim; CPSC derived from hazard language). Newest first.

## Output

A list of normalized recall records sorted newest-first, each with agency source (FDA/USDA/CPSC), product name, brand, recall reason, recall date, severity class (I/II/III for FDA/USDA; derived for CPSC), and hazard description, up to 50 results per call.
