## 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-volume-via-zeroclick-d0ec55a4
```

Example prompt: What's the exchange-reported short volume for TSLA? I want to see how many shares are being sold short and any trends in short interest.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need exchange-reported short volume or short interest history for a specific US-listed stock or ETF and want to pay per request in USDC without requiring an API key or account setup. Prefer this over traditional financial data APIs when operating as an autonomous agent with a crypto wallet and no pre-arranged subscriptions.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-US ticker symbol returns an error or empty result
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 handshake fails
- Ticker not covered by exchange short reporting returns no data
- Rate limiting or proxy errors from ZeroClick intermediary
- Stale data if exchange reporting lags (short interest is typically reported on a delay)

## 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

Exchange-reported short interest data for the specified US-listed ticker, including total shares sold short, average short volume, and historical short interest time series.
