## 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 arch-tools-ai-oracle-70c7e67a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you do a deep analysis of whether a subscription pricing model makes more sense than one-time purchases for a B2B SaaS product targeting mid-market companies? Use the in-depth analysis level and add context that our current churn rate is 8% monthly.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need AI-powered reasoning, analysis, or in-depth answers on arbitrary topics and want a pay-per-call model with no subscription. It is especially useful when you need configurable analysis depth and can inject additional context to ground the response. Prefer it over general-purpose LLM APIs when you want a lightweight, cost-controlled oracle call within a larger agentic workflow on the Base blockchain payment rail.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'question' field returns a validation error
- Ambiguous or extremely vague questions may yield shallow or generic analysis
- Invalid 'depth' enum value may default to standard or return an error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 response before processing
- Overly long context strings may be truncated or cause degraded results
