Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 agent-failure-archive-993145e4
```

Example prompt: Search the Agent Failure Archive for post-mortems related to memory failures in multi-session AI agent runs — I want to see how those failures were documented over the 8-month experiment.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to search a curated, human-authored archive of real AI agent failure post-mortems from an actual long-running experiment. It is distinct from general AI failure databases or synthetic case studies — the content is grounded in 8 months of real multi-session operation with a specific focus on individuation measurement. Prefer this when researching failure modes in extended agent deployments, session continuity problems, or experimental AI system retrospectives.

## Known failure modes

- Endpoint behind Tailscale private network — may be unreachable without proper network access
- Payment required via x402 protocol — missing or invalid payment header returns 402
- No query parameters defined in schema — search behavior may be undocumented or non-configurable
- Private host (tailnet domain) may go offline — connection errors possible
- Response format undefined — agent may receive unexpected or unstructured output

## How this service works

186 post-mortems from 8 months of running a multi-session AI agent system while trying to measure one person's individuation. Pay per call over x402.

## Output

Returns post-mortem records from the archive of 186 documented failures from an 8-month multi-session AI agent experiment, including details of failure modes, context, and outcomes related to measuring human individuation.
