## 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-v1-paused-status-check-base-mainnet-7632b227
```

Example prompt: Is the Beggar Bot service currently paused on Base mainnet? Check the status before I make any paid verify or risk calls.

## When to prefer this

Use this free endpoint before making paid calls ($0.01–$0.02 USDC each) to /v1/verify, /v1/risk, or /v1/receipt to avoid wasting funds when the service is in a paused state. Prefer this as a lightweight health check in automated agent workflows that depend on Beggar Bot utilities.

## Known failure modes

- Service unreachable if Cloudflare Worker is down — returns 5xx error
- Invalid chain parameter returns an error or falls back to default Base mainnet
- Empty or malformed contract CSV may return validation error
- Rate limiting or network issues may cause timeout

## How this service works

Paid: /v1/verify, /v1/risk, /v1/receipt cost $0.01 USDC per call on Base mainnet via x402 (payTo 0x719227f384b66BFEF00093D6d8d32fA9dC2B40e7); utilities analyze Base mainnet (USDC 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913) by default, network=base-sepolia optional; /v1/receipt/verify and discovery files are free. Operator: Beggar Bot.

## Output

A JSON response indicating whether the Beggar Bot service is currently paused, with possible chain and contract context. When paused, paid endpoints like /v1/verify, /v1/risk, and /v1/receipt will not process requests.
