## 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 devpkg-intel-package-info-17dec577
```

Example prompt: What's the latest version, licence, and deprecation status of the 'lodash' npm package right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, live snapshot of a package's core metadata — version, licence, deprecation, repo, dependency count — across npm, PyPI, or crates.io, without needing security advisory detail. Prefer the sibling advisory endpoint if you also need CVE/vulnerability data, or the verdict endpoint if you want a single safe-to-add recommendation.

## Known failure modes

- Package not found on the specified registry — returns error or empty result
- Registry unreachable or rate-limited — upstream timeout
- Ambiguous package name without ecosystem specified — may return wrong package or error
- Deprecated packages may return limited metadata if registry removes details

## How this service works

Latest version, licence, deprecation, repository and dependency count for an npm, PyPI or crates.io package. Live from the registry.

## Output

A structured response containing the package's latest published version, its open-source licence identifier, deprecation flag or notice, repository URL, and total direct dependency count — pulled live from the respective registry (npm, PyPI, or crates.io) at query time.
