## 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 datanest-forecast-api-1dbb325a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run a DataNest forecast query for me and return the predicted results — I need to see what the forecast data looks like for my current dataset.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need access to DataNest-specific forecast predictions through a pay-per-use micropayment model on Base chain (USDC), without committing to a subscription. Best suited for agents that occasionally need forecast data and want cost-per-call pricing rather than a monthly plan.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance causes 402 payment required error
- Malformed or missing result object in request body returns validation error
- DataNest backend unavailable results in 503 or timeout
- Ambiguous or incomplete input parameters produce empty or generic example response
- Rate limiting on the hub may cause 429 errors during high-volume usage
