Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 autonomy-api-network-image-inspect-f9f8d961 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you inspect this base64 image for me and tell me its dimensions, format, whether it might be animated, and any optimization tips? Here's the data URL: data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANS...

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly extract metadata from a base64-encoded image without uploading it to a storage service, or when you want to assess whether an image needs optimization before further processing or display. Ideal for pipelines that receive images as base64 blobs and need format/dimension checks programmatically.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed base64 string returns an error indicating bad input
- Unsupported image format results in a parsing failure
- Empty or missing base64 field returns a validation error
- Extremely large images may time out or exceed payload limits
- Truncated base64 data may result in partial or failed inspection

## How this service works

Inspect a base64 image for dimensions, format, likely animation, and optimization advice.

## Output

Returns image metadata including pixel dimensions (width and height), detected image format (e.g. PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP), a flag indicating whether the image is likely animated, and actionable optimization advice such as compression recommendations or format conversion suggestions.
