## 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 ads-b-flight-tracker-mcp-d191049c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you track flight AA123 for me right now and tell me its current position, altitude, and whether it's on time?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time aircraft position and flight status data from ADS-B transponder signals, particularly when tracking live flights, monitoring arrivals, or querying specific aircraft by callsign, tail number, or ICAO hex code. Prefer over schedule-based APIs when you need actual current position rather than planned routes.

## Known failure modes

- Aircraft not currently transmitting ADS-B data — returns no result or empty response
- Invalid or unknown callsign/ICAO code — returns error or null data
- Flight has not yet departed — position data unavailable
- ADS-B receiver coverage gap for low-altitude or remote flights
- Malformed input query string returns validation error
