## 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 bitrefill-esim-search-16e8f4aa
```

Example prompt: Search Bitrefill's eSIM catalog for data plans available in Japan — use country code JP to filter the results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover available eSIM plans on Bitrefill for a specific country or region before purchasing. Prefer this over general telecom APIs when the user wants a digital eSIM (not a physical SIM) and specifically wants to browse Bitrefill's inventory.

## Known failure modes

- No eSIM plans found for the given country or region (empty result set)
- Invalid ISO country code returns no results or an error
- Missing required query parameters result in a 400 bad request
- Payment not processed correctly via x402 protocol causes a 402 payment required error

## How this service works

## Output
