## 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 anyapi-person-skip-trace-d31d540f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run a skip trace on John Michael Smith, born March 15 1982, last known address 123 Oak Street, Dallas TX — I need to find his current address and phone number.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to locate a person's current contact information or address using partial identity data, especially in investigative, debt collection, legal service, or reconnection contexts. Prefer this over a generic people-search when you want pay-per-request pricing with no subscription and direct API access via a single wallet key.

## Known failure modes

- Person not found in records — returns empty or null result set
- Insufficient input data to identify a unique individual — ambiguous match
- Invalid or missing required identity fields — 400 error
- Payment failure via x402 wallet — request not processed
- Rate limiting or upstream data provider unavailability — 5xx error
