## 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-time-place-public-holidays-lookup-426d23ff
```

Example prompt: What are all the public holidays in France for 2026, and can you include any regional holidays for Alsace using code FR-67?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, structured public holiday data for a specific country and year without requiring an API key — authentication is handled via x402 micro-payment. It is ideal for AI agents that need to check business days, avoid scheduling on holidays, or enrich calendaring logic, especially when sub-cent per-call pricing matters. Prefer it over general-purpose calendar APIs when you want predictable machine-readable output with regional granularity and no OAuth setup.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'country' query parameter returns a 400-level error
- Invalid or unsupported ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code returns an error or empty result
- Year outside the supported range (1975–2100) may return a validation error
- Invalid ISO 3166-2 region code may be silently ignored or return an error
- Payment not made or invalid x402 payment header returns a 402 Payment Required response
- Network timeout on the Cloudflare Worker edge node

## How this service works

Geocoding, timezones, holidays, business days, sun times, FX and distances for AI agents. Deterministic, sub-cent, no API key: payment is authentication (x402).

## Output

A JSON object with the queried country code, year, total holiday count, and an array of holiday objects each containing the date (ISO 8601), English name, local-language name, array of holiday type strings (e.g. 'Public'), a nationwide boolean, and an optional array of ISO 3166-2 region codes when the holiday is regional rather than national.
