# CRA AGENT Think

> CRA AGENT Think is a paid API for AI agents from api.cra-agent.tech, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).

Delegates a natural-language question to an autonomous thinking agent that reasons, uses tools, and returns a synthesised answer — billing only what it actually spent plus a small markup, capped at $0.10.

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 cra-agent-think-056cd464
```

Example prompt: Ask the CRA thinking agent: what moved EURC against USDC on Arc today, and why? It'll reason through it using its tools and charge me only what it actually spends, up to $0.10.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when the user's question requires multi-step reasoning, tool use, or synthesis across multiple data sources — and when a single deterministic data endpoint would not suffice. It is especially useful for open-ended questions about Arc on-chain activity, DeFi market dynamics, or any query that benefits from an agent autonomously deciding which tools to call. Prefer dedicated CRA data endpoints for simple, single-fact lookups (e.g. ECB rate, Wikipedia summary) to avoid unnecessary cost; use Think when the question is complex or the required data sources are not known in advance.

## Known failure modes

- Task string shorter than 3 or longer than 500 characters returns a validation error
- Agent exhausts budget before completing reasoning — partial or truncated answer returned
- Underlying tools (Arc data, ECB rates, Wikipedia, etc.) unavailable — agent may return degraded answer
- Payment of up to $0.10 USDC not available or x402 handshake fails — request rejected before execution
- Ambiguous or unanswerable task — agent returns a best-effort response that may be low-confidence

## How this service works

Ask the thinking agent anything. It pays for its own thoughts and tools on Arc; you pay what it spent plus $0.005, up to $0.10.

## Output

A synthesised natural-language answer to the submitted task, produced by an autonomous agent that may have called multiple tools (web lookups, on-chain data, exchange rates, etc.) during reasoning. The response includes the answer text and the cost breakdown showing what the agent spent on tools plus the $0.005 markup, with a hard cap of $0.10 USDC.
