## 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 climatepulse-severe-weather-threat-assessment-fd97682d
```

Example prompt: There's supposedly a severe storm heading toward Austin, TX right now — can you check if there are active weather alerts, tell me how serious the threat is, and give me a safety timeline and shelter guidance?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a user needs urgent, actionable severe weather safety information for a specific location, including threat assessment, emergency preparedness steps, and shelter guidance — not just a forecast. Prefer over general forecast endpoints when the concern is an active or imminent hazard event (storm, tornado, hurricane, flood, etc.).

## Known failure modes

- Location not recognized or unresolvable — returns 400 with invalid location error
- No active severe weather alerts for the location — returns result with empty alerts and low threat level
- Service unavailable or upstream weather data provider down — returns 503
- Payment not provided or invalid — returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limit exceeded — returns 429

## Output

Returns active severe weather alerts for the location, an assessed threat level, a safety timeline indicating when conditions worsen, a step-by-step preparedness checklist, shelter-in-place or evacuation guidance, and local emergency contact numbers.
