## 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 2s-io-4c6781f1
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the npm package @sentry/node and tell me the latest version, who the maintainers are, its license, and whether any recent versions have been deprecated?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need rich, structured npm package metadata including version history, maintainers, dist-tags, and deprecation info — especially when you need to inspect scoped packages like @scope/name. Prefer this over scraping npmjs.com or calling the raw npm registry API directly, as it returns a curated, normalized response covering ~3M packages.

## Known failure modes

- Package not found — returns 404 if the package name does not exist in the npm registry
- Invalid scoped package name format — malformed @scope/name results in an error
- Rate limit or payment failure — x402 payment not accepted or quota exceeded
- Network timeout — registry unreachable or slow to respond

## How this service works

Look up an npm package by name (supports scoped packages like @sentry/node). Returns description, homepage, repository, license, author + maintainers list, keywords, distTags (latest/beta/rc/etc.), latest version + publication date, and the 50 most recent versions with their publish dates + deprecation status. ~3M JavaScript/TypeScript packages. npm public registry.

## Output

Returns a structured record for the npm package including: description, homepage, repository link, license, author, list of maintainers, keywords, dist-tags (latest/beta/rc/etc.), latest version with publication date, and the 50 most recent versions each with their publish date and deprecation status.
