## 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 earnfi-interrupt-single-question-human-answer-5b1cf209
```

Example prompt: Ask 5 real people this question and pay each $0.10: 'Does our new logo feel more professional or more playful?' — collect their answers and bring them back to me.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need rapid, real human opinions or light judgments on a single, clear question — not automated AI responses. Prefer it over the Contest endpoint when there is no prize competition involved, and over the Manual endpoint when the task is simply answering a question rather than a multi-step instruction set. Ideal for AI pipelines that need a human-in-the-loop validation or sentiment check step.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient funds or payment failure — x402 payment not completed after quote, task not created
- slots out of range — integer below 1 or above 50 returns validation error
- reward_per_user below platform minimum of $0.05 — rejected with minimum threshold error
- Missing agent_token after quote phase — paid creation blocked
- Question field empty or missing — required field validation failure
- Token gate misconfiguration — eligible participants cannot be found

## How this service works

**Paid (x402).** Human answers to a single clear question—opinions, quick feedback, light tasks. Same quote-then-pay pattern; optional gating as documented.

## Output

The agent receives human-submitted answers to the posed question from the number of contributors specified by the slots parameter, each paid the configured reward, potentially filtered by token gate criteria.
