## 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-strale-io-c3c80cf2
```

Example prompt: How old is the domain phishysite.xyz — when was it registered, who's the registrar, and when does it expire? I want to know if it's a newly registered domain that could be a fraud risk.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fast, structured domain age and registration data for fraud detection, risk scoring, or due diligence — particularly when you want age-in-days as a ready-to-use numeric signal rather than raw WHOIS text.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found or unregistered — returns error or null result
- Invalid domain format — returns validation error
- WHOIS data unavailable or restricted for some TLDs — may return partial data
- Rate limiting or payment failure — returns 402 or 429 error

## How this service works

Quick domain registration age lookup. Returns creation date, age in days, registrar, and expiry date. Useful for fraud detection — newly registered domains are higher risk.

## Output

Returns the domain's creation date, age in days since registration, registrar name, and expiry date — enabling quick risk assessment based on domain age.
