Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 context-agentutil-net-b4cbb6e5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I kick off this deployment pipeline, can you check if GitHub is up right now and not having any incidents?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs a pre-flight check before triggering deployments, API-dependent workflows, or any automation that relies on a third-party platform being operational. Prefer over manually checking status pages or scraping provider websites.

## Known failure modes

- Platform not monitored: status='unknown', summary explains platform is not yet tracked, last_checked is null
- Missing or invalid platform field: may return an error or unknown status
- Network/upstream failure: request_id returned but status data unavailable
- Unsupported platform name: returns unknown status without error

## How this service works

Is GitHub, AWS, or Stripe up right now? Check platform status before triggering deployments or API-dependent workflows

## Output

Returns a status string, a human-readable summary, the platform name echoed back, and a last_checked timestamp (may be null if not monitored). Also includes related agentutil services for further context.
