## 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 daydream-ai-music-generator-cc69868a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you generate a 60-second upbeat lo-fi hip hop track at 90 BPM in D minor that loops seamlessly — I need it royalty-free for a YouTube video background?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need royalty-free AI-generated music with fine-grained control over BPM, musical key, duration, and loop behavior, especially when cost efficiency matters ($0.05 per song). It is ideal for agents automating content pipelines that require commercial-use audio without licensing overhead, and when stems (individual instrument tracks) are needed for post-production remixing.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid prompt (empty or missing) returns a 400 error
- BPM outside 60–200 range or duration outside 10–120 seconds triggers a validation error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) results in a 402 response
- Service queue overload may increase wait time or return a timeout
- Access token expiry before download completes may require re-fetching

## How this service works

Describe a song, get it in seconds. Download mixes and stems, royalty-free for commercial use. 5 free songs a month, then 5¢ a song.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a song ID, queue position, processing status ('queued'), and an access token used to retrieve the finished audio file (mixes and stems) once generation completes.
