## 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 ens-avatar-resolver-1c190586
```

Example prompt: What's the fully resolved avatar image URL for vitalik.eth? I need the actual image link, not just the raw avatar record.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to display or process a user's ENS avatar as a direct image URL, especially when the avatar record may be an NFT reference or IPFS URI that requires multi-step dereferencing. Prefer this over raw ENS resolution libraries when you need a ready-to-use image link without implementing your own dereferencing logic.

## Known failure modes

- ENS name does not exist — returns not found or null
- ENS name has no avatar record set — returns empty or null
- Avatar record references an NFT the resolver cannot access — returns error
- Invalid ENS name format — returns 400-level error
- Upstream ENS/IPFS resolution timeout — returns 5xx error

## How this service works

Avatar record fully dereferenced to an image URL

## Output

A fully dereferenced image URL representing the ENS name's avatar — whether the avatar is stored as an IPFS URI, an NFT reference (EIP-155), or a regular HTTPS URL, the endpoint follows all indirection and returns a direct, usable image link.
