## 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-the402-ai-5b038e4a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run a security research report on the agent service with ID svc_bda8152889344909 — I need to understand its vulnerabilities and threat surface.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a formal, paid security research report specifically about an AI agent or service — particularly when you need structured threat/vulnerability analysis rather than general web scraping or sentiment analysis. Prefer this over generic security tools when the subject is an AI agent service identifiable by a service ID on the402.ai platform.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'id' field returns a 400 validation error
- Unknown or inaccessible service ID may return 404 or job failure status
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents job creation
- Service may return a pending status that requires polling via the job status endpoint

## How this service works

Purchase: Agent Security Research Report

## Output

Returns a job_id for tracking the report generation, an initial status string indicating job state, and a thread_id for following the research thread; the full report is retrieved asynchronously via the job status endpoint.
