## 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-drug-recalls-28f45c86
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest drug and pharmaceutical recalls from the past 30 days — show me up to 25 results and flag anything related to contamination.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need drug and pharmaceutical recall data pre-filtered from the broader /v1/recalls endpoint, saving you the step of category-filtering client-side. Prefer this over general recall endpoints when your agent workflow is pharmaceutical- or medication-focused. Ideal for compliance monitoring, patient safety checks, pharmacy inventory audits, or healthcare journalism workflows where only drug recalls are relevant.

## Known failure modes

- No recalls found matching query or date range — returns empty list
- Invalid date format for 'since' parameter — returns validation error
- Query string too short (< 2 chars) or too long (> 120 chars) — returns validation error
- limit out of range (< 1 or > 50) — returns validation error
- Payment failure (x402 protocol) — returns 402 if USDC not provided
- Upstream data source temporarily unavailable — may return 5xx

## How this service works

Latest drug and pharmaceutical recalls (FDA/USDA/CPSC normalized) — Latest drug and pharmaceutical recalls across FDA, USDA FSIS, and CPSC in one normalized schema, with severity classing and product details. Same shape as /v1/recalls, pre-filtered to the drug category.

## Output

A list of normalized drug recall records, each including product name, brand, issuing agency (FDA/USDA FSIS/CPSC), recall date, severity class, hazard description, and other product details — all in a consistent schema regardless of source agency.
