## 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 dutch-vacation-region-holiday-dates-lookup-9c26b8be -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Which Dutch vacation region is Utrecht in, and what are the current school holiday dates for that region?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to determine which of the three Dutch school holiday regions (noord, midden, or zuid) a specific Dutch city, municipality, or province belongs to, and want the associated holiday dates in a single call. Prefer this over manual lookup tables or general geographic APIs that don't know about the Dutch holiday region system.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized place name — place cannot be resolved to a Dutch gemeente or province
- Ambiguous place name — multiple matches possible
- Missing query parameter — no place provided
- Payment failure — x402 payment not completed or insufficient
- Service unavailable — API returns 5xx

## How this service works

Resolve a Dutch place to its vacation region + holiday dates. Send the parameters in a JSON request body via POST. Payment constitutes acceptance of the terms at https://agenticweb.nl/terms.

## Output

Returns the queried place echo, the vacation region classification (noord, midden, or zuid), and an array of the current school holiday date ranges applicable to that region.
