## 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 beggar-bot-take-rate-lookup-base-mainnet-14249771
```

Example prompt: What's the current take rate for USDC on Base mainnet? Use the Beggar Bot take rate endpoint — I'm okay paying the $0.02 USDC fee via x402.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need on-chain take rate or fee data specifically for USDC on Base mainnet and are operating in an x402-capable agent environment that can handle micropayment authentication. Prefer this over manual RPC calls when you want a pre-computed, normalized take rate metric without building your own blockchain data pipeline.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient (requires $0.02 USDC on Base mainnet to payTo address 0x719227f384b66BFEF00093D6d8d32fA9dC2B40e7)
- Invalid network parameter if an unsupported network is specified
- Rate limiting or worker timeout if Cloudflare Workers infrastructure is under load
- Stale or unavailable on-chain data if Base mainnet RPC is degraded
- Malformed response if USDC contract address is misconfigured
