## 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 aiscan-health-check-b39fb38d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if the AIScan AI visibility service is up and running before I submit my site https://example.com for a full audit?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint as a pre-flight check before invoking a more expensive AIScan audit endpoint, or when you want to confirm the AIScan service is operational without committing to a full website analysis run.

## Known failure modes

- Service unavailable — AIScan backend is down, returns error or timeout
- Invalid URL format — URL field missing or malformed, returns 400-level error
- Payment failure — x402 micropayment of $0.06 USDC not settled, request rejected
- Network timeout — API gateway unreachable

## How this service works

AIScan audits any website for AI visibility in 60 seconds. 4 scores: AEO, GEO, Agent Readiness, MCP Readiness. Plus Brand Visibility: how often AI actually names your brand. The only scanner with MCP Readiness.

## Output

Returns a capability string confirming which AIScan capability was executed, the URL that was analyzed, and payment settlement information — essentially confirming the service is live and reachable.
