## 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 americanexpress-com-down-status-change-watch-9a61039d
```

Example prompt: Keep an eye on americanexpress.com for me and let me know if its up/down status has changed since the last time you checked — I want to know what changed and when.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need change-detection for americanexpress.com availability — not just a one-time status check. It is ideal for scheduled polling workflows where you want to be notified only when something changes, avoiding alert fatigue from repeated identical results. Prefer this over a generic HTTP ping when you need before/after diff context and a persistent 90-day history of results.

## Known failure modes

- No previous check exists (first call returns current state only, changed=false or null)
- americanexpress.com itself is unreachable due to network issues unrelated to site status
- Cached result is stale beyond 90 days, clearing comparison baseline
- Payment of $0.02 USDC not processed, resulting in 402 response
- Transient check failure returns ambiguous down status

## How this service works

Change watch for is americanexpress com down: runs the check, compares it with the result from your previous call for the same query (kept 90 days) and returns the current answer, changed true/false, the fields that changed with before/after values, and when it was last seen. Schedule it to be alerted when this changes. $0.02 per check.

## Output

Returns the current up/down status of americanexpress.com, a boolean indicating whether the status changed since the last call, a list of fields that changed with their before and after values, and the timestamp of when the status was last observed. Results are compared against a cached result from up to 90 days prior.
