## 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 base-gas-price-5a09d4b3
```

Example prompt: What's the current gas price on Base right now — give me both the wei and gwei values so I can decide whether to submit my transaction.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, no-parameter lookup of Base chain gas prices in both wei and gwei. Ideal for agents automating Base transactions who need to check fee conditions before submitting. Prefer this over general blockchain APIs if you specifically need Base L2 gas data at low cost ($0.005 per call).

## Known failure modes

- Base RPC node unavailable — returns 5xx error
- Payment not included or invalid — returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting — returns 429 Too Many Requests
- Upstream eth_gasPrice call fails — may return stale or error response
