## 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 curtailment-vs-running-contribution-single-calculation-475491b1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Calculate the curtailment versus running contribution for my mining operation where I have an avoided cost of $20, lost revenue of $40, and a curtailment credit of $50.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, single-shot economic comparison of curtailing a mining operation versus keeping it running, and you already have concrete USD figures for avoided cost, lost revenue, and curtailment credit. It is purpose-built for this specific mining curtailment formula rather than a general financial calculator.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (curtail_credit_usd, avoided_cost_usd, or lost_revenue_usd) returns a validation error
- Values outside allowed range (negative numbers or above maximum threshold) may be rejected
- Payment of 0.01 USDC not completed results in 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed JSON body returns 400 Bad Request
