## 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 botpay-nft-mint-9fe4e445 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Mint an NFT on Base with the inscription 'Congratulations on your first trade!' and send it to wallet 0xAbCd1234...5678 — pay for it automatically with USDC.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to autonomously mint and deliver a Base-chain NFT with optional inscription text in a single programmable payment call. It is ideal for agent-to-agent reward flows, on-chain achievement badges, commemorative artifacts, or any use case where a permanent NFT record needs to be created and sent to a wallet without human intervention. Prefer this over general NFT platforms when the x402 micropayment model and Base chain compatibility are required.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance for x402 payment — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid recipient address format (not a valid 0x EVM address) — validation error
- Inscription text exceeds 512-character limit — schema validation error
- Network congestion causing mint transaction delay or failure
- NFT contract error on Base chain — mint transaction reverts
