## 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 clonecho-builda-company-pypi-package-metadata-0c0ec460 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the PyPI metadata for the 'requests' package — I need to know its current version, license, author, required Python version, and how many dependencies it has?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured metadata about a specific Python package from PyPI, especially when you want version, license, author, dependency count, or release history in a single JSON response without scraping PyPI directly or using the full PyPI JSON API.

## Known failure modes

- Package not found on PyPI — returns error or empty result
- Invalid or misspelled package name — no data returned
- PyPI API unavailable or rate-limited — upstream error
- Payment failure — x402 payment of $0.02 USDC required before response is served

## How this service works

## Output

A JSON object containing the package's current version, summary description, license type, author name, minimum required Python version, number of dependencies, and release history entries.
