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 cron-job-scheduler-for-onchain-trading-intelligence-b7e714cd -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Set up a cron job that hits my callback at https://mybot.example.com/webhook every 5 minutes using POST, with my secret token 'abc123xyz', so I can get fresh pump.fun snipe alerts automatically.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to automate periodic calls to onchain or trading intelligence tools on a fixed schedule — for example, polling token prices, monitoring new launches, or checking risk scores at regular intervals — without maintaining your own cron infrastructure. Prefer this over manual polling when you need reliable, pay-per-call scheduled automation payable in stablecoins without account setup.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid cron expression format causes rejection
- Callback URL unreachable or non-public returns scheduling error
- Missing required fields (url, cron, token) returns 400 validation error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks job creation
- Cron job silently fails if callback URL goes offline after scheduling

## How this service works

Recurring webhook: fire your URL on a cron schedule (repeats). Send { token, url, cron, payload?, method? }.

## Output

A confirmation that the cron job has been registered, including the scheduled expression, the callback URL, and likely a job ID or next-run timestamp. Subsequent executions will POST (or GET) the supplied payload to the callback URL on the defined schedule.
