## 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 api-run402-com-14a8e54a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Subscribe me to the Run402 hobby tier — go ahead and upgrade or renew as needed, I want the $5 USDC plan activated on my account.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user explicitly wants the hobby tier ($5 USDC) on Run402, especially when it's unclear whether they are subscribing for the first time, renewing an existing subscription, or upgrading from a lower tier like prototype. The auto-detect logic makes it the safest single call for all hobby tier transitions.

## Known failure modes

- Payment of $5 USDC fails or is rejected — subscription not activated
- Already at a higher tier and downgrade is not supported — returns conflict or error
- Invalid or missing required input fields — returns 400 Bad Request
- Network or service unavailability — returns 5xx error
- Insufficient USDC balance to cover the $5 cost

## How this service works

Set hobby tier ($5.00 USDC) — auto-detects subscribe/renew/upgrade

## Output

A confirmation that the account has been set to the hobby tier, including whether the action was treated as a new subscription, renewal, or upgrade, along with the new tier status.
