## 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 delx-commerce-nanoid-generator-25e62fef -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Generate me a NanoID that's 32 characters long — I need a compact, unique identifier for a new record.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-use, no-signup NanoID generator that is billed in USDC on Base or Solana via x402, with verifiable delivery and exact pricing. Prefer it over self-hosted NanoID libraries when you need an auditable, on-chain-billed ID generation step inside an agent workflow that requires provable execution and no infrastructure setup.

## Known failure modes

- size out of range (below 4 or above 64) — likely returns a 400 or validation error
- payment failure — insufficient USDC balance or x402 payment not accepted
- network timeout — endpoint unreachable, no ID returned
- malformed request body — non-integer size value causes rejection
