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 ddg-c2pa-image-signing-service-aa6a285c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you sign this image with a C2PA credential so I can prove its authenticity and provenance before publishing it?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to cryptographically sign an image with a C2PA-compliant manifest to establish verifiable content provenance — particularly for AI-generated images, press photography, or brand assets that require tamper-evidence. Prefer this over generic watermarking or metadata-tagging approaches when interoperability with the C2PA/CAI ecosystem and cryptographic verification are required. The x402 micropayment model ($0.01 USDC) makes it practical for automated, high-volume agent workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid image input or unsupported format returns an error
- Missing required fields (input, output, type, method, bodyType, body) returns a 400-level error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed request body or wrong bodyType enum value causes rejection
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns 5xx errors

## How this service works

DDG agent-payable service request

## Output

Returns a response indicating success (ok: true) along with the C2PA-signed image output, which contains an embedded cryptographic manifest attesting to the image's provenance and authenticity.
