## 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 compliance-verifier-agent-skill-pre-install-validator-e08a651a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run a pre-install compliance check on my skill — its markdown spec is in skill_md, it requests permissions [read_files, send_email], and use a POST with JSON body. I need to know if it's VERIFIED or if there are any violations before I submit it.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a structured, machine-readable compliance verdict on an AI skill before installing or publishing it — especially in automated pipelines or marketplaces where a VERIFIED/FAILED result with itemized violations is required. Prefer this over manual review when you need programmatic violation details to drive conditional logic (e.g. block deployment on FAILED).

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'input' object returns 400 validation error
- Invalid method enum (not POST/PUT/PATCH) returns schema validation failure
- Malformed skill_md (non-string) causes parsing error
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC triggers x402 Payment Required response before result is returned
- Empty or null requested_permissions may cause incomplete validation results
- Network timeout on DigitalOcean app instance returns 503

## How this service works

skill_pre_install_v1 pre-install validation — VERIFIED or FAILED with structured violations[]. Pay Base USDC then resubmit with payment proof.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a top-level status field of either VERIFIED or FAILED, accompanied by a structured violations array listing each compliance issue found (e.g. disallowed permission, missing metadata field, policy breach). On VERIFIED, violations array is empty; on FAILED, each violation entry details the rule breached and affected field.
