## 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 dataforagents-fifa-player-search-3ca1a0bf
```

Example prompt: Can you search the FIFA player database for all forwards from Argentina — show me up to 10 results?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured FIFA player lookup by name, team, position, or nationality without managing API keys — payment is handled automatically per-request via x402 USDC at $0.01 per call. Ideal for agents that need sports data on demand without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- No players found matching the query — empty data array returned with results_count of 0
- Payment not received or invalid x402 USDC payment — request rejected before processing
- Invalid position code supplied (not FW, MF, DF, or GK) — may return empty or unexpected results
- limit parameter ignored or capped if out of valid range
- Network or upstream data source unavailability returning a non-success status

## How this service works

Pay-per-request datasets for autonomous agents via x402 (USDC). Structured JSON APIs; no API keys — pay on the wire.

## Output

Returns a JSON array of player records each containing player_id, player_name, team, position, and nationality, along with a status field and a total results_count. Results are filtered according to the query parameters supplied.
