## 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 emoji-info-lookup-2e2575cc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the info for the 🎉 emoji and tell me its official name and what it means?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, programmatic metadata about a specific emoji character — such as its official Unicode name, category, or description — rather than a general text explanation. Useful for building emoji pickers, accessibility tooling, chat moderation systems, or any workflow that needs to programmatically reason about emoji identity and semantics.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or empty emoji input returns an error
- Non-emoji string input may be rejected
- Multi-emoji strings may not be supported (single emoji required per schema minLength:1)
- Unsupported or very new emoji may return incomplete metadata
- Network or payment authorization failures result in no response

## How this service works

Given an emoji character (or any string), return its code points and — if known — its name, category, shortcodes and tags. An unknown emoji is a successful result with `known:false`, not an error.

## Output

Returns structured metadata about the given emoji character, likely including its official Unicode name, category, description, codepoint, and other relevant properties such as version or group classification.
