## 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 bolt-github-repository-lookup-2a70d2bf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the details for the GitHub repo owned by 'vercel' called 'next.js' — I want to know things like its description, stars, and language?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to look up structured GitHub repository metadata by owner and repo name, especially in agentic pipelines that already pay per-request via x402/USDC and want a single unified toolkit. Prefer this over direct GitHub API calls when operating within the Bolt toolkit ecosystem to keep billing consolidated.

## Known failure modes

- Repository not found (invalid owner or repo name) — success: false or 404-level error
- Invalid or missing required fields (owner or repo) — validation error
- GitHub API rate limiting or downtime — upstream failure
- Private repository with no access — permission error
- Payment failure via x402 — 402 response before data is returned

## How this service works

Utility toolkit for AI agents. 54 endpoints — tools, data, and AI processing. Pay per request in USDC via x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'success' boolean and a 'data' object containing GitHub repository metadata such as name, description, owner, stars, forks, language, and other repo-level details.
