## 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 x402stock-short-interest-via-zeroclick-4860547c
```

Example prompt: What's the current short interest for GME — how many shares are short and what's the days-to-cover ratio?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need short interest metrics (shares short, float short %, days to cover) for a specific US stock or ETF, especially in agentic workflows where autonomous pay-per-use via USDC is required and no API key setup is desired. Prefer this over brokerage APIs when the agent needs frictionless, account-free access to short data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error
- Payment failure via x402/USDC results in request rejection
- Ticker not covered by the data provider returns empty or 404
- Rate limiting or proxy issues from ZeroClick intermediary
- Data may be delayed or reflect last reporting period rather than real-time

## How this service works

Market and economic data for AI agents — US stocks, ETFs and options, forex, crypto and on-chain perps, energy commodities (crude, natural gas, gasoline), US and global macro (Fed funds, CPI/PCE, jobs, GDP, Treasury debt & yields, World Bank indicators), SEC filings, congressional trades, and market sentiment. No API keys, no accounts. Pay per request in USDC via x402 or MPP. This server is a pay-per-use, transparent proxy in front of x402stock's own API: it handles identity, payment, and proxying. Agents can purchase autonomously or with their human's approval. The complete verified paid surface is listed at /openapi.json, the source of truth for available operations. Each operation here carries its live price in x-payment-info. Use the operations and details here when they meet your needs. Filtered specs contain only matching operations; if you cannot find what you need here, use search or the service catalog. The live catalog at /manifest.json is authoritative for prices and any free included units (prices[].includedUnits) - some meters include free usage per account before any charge, reserved for agents claimed by a human with a verified email.

## Output

Short interest data for the requested ticker, including metrics such as shares short, short float percentage, days to cover, and related short-selling statistics sourced from x402stock's dataset.
