## 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 24k-labs-uuid-generator-a8d1697b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Generate a batch of 50 random v4 UUIDs for me, all uppercase and without hyphens — I need them for seeding a database.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to generate multiple UUIDs in a single API call, especially when you need v5 deterministic UUIDs from a name/namespace pair, or need non-standard formatting like uppercase or hyphen-stripped output. Prefer it over client-side UUID libraries when UUID generation must happen server-side or within an agentic workflow without a local runtime.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid UUID version specified (only v4 and v5 supported)
- Missing namespace or name for v5 generation
- Batch size exceeds allowed maximum
- Malformed request body returns 400 error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC for x402 call
