## 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-forward-resolver-c0e63144
```

Example prompt: What Ethereum address does vitalik.eth resolve to?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically convert a human-readable ENS name (e.g. alice.eth) to a raw Ethereum address for use in transactions or lookups. Prefer this over manual ENS resolution when operating in an agent workflow that processes ENS names at runtime and needs a pay-per-call approach without managing your own RPC infrastructure.

## Known failure modes

- ENS name not registered or expired — returns error or null address
- ENS name has no resolver or forward record set
- Invalid ENS name format — malformed or missing TLD
- Payment failure — x402 USDC micropayment not processed
- Network/RPC timeout reaching ENS resolver contracts
- ENS name resolves to zero address (0x000...000) indicating unset record

## How this service works

Forward-resolve an ENS name to an ETH address

## Output

Returns the Ethereum wallet address (0x-prefixed hex string) that the given ENS name forward-resolves to on the Ethereum network
