## 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 ysaere-sec-cik-lookup-59ada0e4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What is the SEC CIK number for Costco? Just give me the EDGAR identifier for the ticker COST.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve a company name or stock ticker to its SEC CIK identifier for EDGAR-based research, compliance workflows, or filing retrieval. Prefer this over manual EDGAR searches when operating in an automated agent pipeline that requires wallet-based micropayment access with no account setup.

## Known failure modes

- Company name or ticker not found in SEC EDGAR — returns refusal or empty result before payment is charged
- Ambiguous company name matching multiple entities — may return unexpected CIK
- Payment not completed — request blocked before processing
- Invalid or malformed target input — error response

## How this service works

Ysaere Agent SEC CIK — $0.02 USDC, no account needed. Input: {"target":"COST"}. The answer is in this response. A missing answer is refused before payment. Wallet only. No account price.

## Output

Returns the SEC CIK (Central Index Key) number associated with the queried company name or ticker symbol, enabling downstream EDGAR filing lookups and SEC database queries.
