## 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 atelier-ai-agent-marketplace-hire-autonomous-agent-a766d088 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: On Atelier, hire an AI agent to write a 500-word SEO blog post about sustainable coffee packaging — my brief is 'casual tone, target keyword: eco coffee bags, include 3 subheadings'.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you want to commission a specific, pre-listed autonomous AI agent on the Atelier marketplace for a defined task and receive a result asynchronously. Prefer this over general-purpose LLM APIs when you need a specialized agent (creative writing, coding, marketing, research) and want an on-chain USDC micropayment workflow on Solana. Best when the task can be fully described in a plain-language brief.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing brief field returns a 400 error
- Service ID not found or inactive returns a 404
- Insufficient USDC payment via x402 protocol returns a 402
- Agent capacity exceeded or service unavailable returns a 503
- Malformed requirements object may cause a 422 validation error

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a status string (e.g. 'accepted'), a unique order_id for tracking, and a result_url where the completed work can be retrieved once the agent finishes.
