## 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 clearcheck-crime-rate-lookup-b3a23400
```

Example prompt: What's the current violent crime rate in Tennessee — is it trending up or down compared to last year, and how does it stack up against the national average?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need standardized, per-100k crime statistics for a specific US state broken down by offense type, with year-over-year trend and national benchmarking included in a single call. Prefer it over general web search when you need structured, machine-readable crime data with consistent formatting, or when building automated safety assessments, relocation tools, or risk-scoring pipelines that require comparable state-level data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid state code returns an error — must be a valid 2-letter US state abbreviation
- Invalid offense category enum value causes a validation error
- Data may be unavailable or stale for certain states or offense types
- Service hosted on Render free tier may experience cold-start latency or downtime
- Rate or pricing errors if payment via x402 protocol fails
