## 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 domains-rapidruntime-com-renew-a-domain-registration-e217d8ae -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Renew my domain 'myawesomeblog.com' through RapidRuntime for two more years — it's a standard domain so no premium price needed.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to extend the registration of an already-owned domain. Should be preceded by a pricing check for premium domains. Prefer this over re-registration flows; it is the canonical renewal action for domains managed under this MPP-backed registrar.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found in account — returns error if the domain path parameter doesn't match a registered domain
- Missing purchasePrice for premium domain — renewal rejected if premium domain requires price confirmation
- Years out of range — error if renewal period is less than 1 or greater than 10
- Insufficient funds or payment failure — transaction rejected
- Domain in locked or transfer-pending state — renewal may be blocked

## How this service works

Extend domain registration. Check pricing first for premium domains.

## Output

Returns an order ID, updated domain object with new expiry date, lock status, autorenew flag, and full WHOIS contact details, plus the total amount paid for the renewal.
