## 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 agents-vimmerse-net-vimmerse-video-credit-estimator-76232334 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I generate the video, can you check how many Vimmerse credits a 10-second reference-to-video using the KlingT3 option will cost for 2 clips?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint whenever you need to preview or validate the credit cost of a video generation request before committing to it. It is ideal for budget checks, user-facing cost previews, and multi-option pricing comparisons. Prefer this over calling the actual video generation endpoint when cost transparency or approval gates are required.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'option' field returns 422 validation error
- Invalid app_name value returns 422 unprocessable entity
- Quantity outside 1-4 range returns 422 validation error
- Unknown or unsupported option for the given app_name may return 400 or 422
- Network timeout if the pricing service is temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Estimates credits for a video route **without** creating an asset. Same pricing as the matching **POST /v2/video/** handler.

**Content-Type:** `application/json`

| Field | Required | Notes |
|-------|----------|-------|
| `app_name` | Yes | e.g. `reference-to-video`, `video-to-video`, `edit-video` |
| `option` | Yes | Tool/model for that route |
| `quantity` | No | Default `1` |
| `duration` | No | Seconds (reference-to-video, etc.) |
| `prompt` | No | Used when pricing depends on length |

## Output

Returns the total integer credit count that would be charged, plus a step-by-step breakdown object detailing the individual pricing components (model tier, duration blocks, quantity multipliers, etc.) — all computed without creating any asset or deducting credits.
