## 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 ccc-tools-qr-code-generator-b59d808d
```

Example prompt: Generate a 300px QR code for https://example.com using dark blue (#003087) as the foreground color.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-use QR code generation with color and size customization without setting up a dedicated QR library or service account — especially in x402-enabled micropayment workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'text' parameter returns an error
- Invalid hex color format may cause rendering failure or default fallback
- Very large size values may time out or be rejected
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC balance causes 402 response
