## 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-cbb4affe
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the port NLRTM and tell me its coordinates, country, and timezone?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve a port's geographic details (coordinates, country, timezone) from either a human-readable port name or a standardized UN/LOCODE. Ideal for enriching shipping/logistics data, validating port codes, or converting between port name and LOCODE formats.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown port name or LOCODE returns empty result or 404
- Ambiguous port name may return multiple or no matches
- Query string missing causes validation error
- Port not in the 175+ major ports dataset returns no result
