## 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 espn-college-basketball-scoreboard-fb49b14a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What college basketball games are going on right now? Show me all the matchups, times, and whether they're live or scheduled.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or today's NCAA men's college basketball game data including matchups, times, and live game status. Prefer this over general sports APIs when you specifically want CBB scoreboard data in a lightweight, no-parameter JSON format.

## Known failure modes

- No games scheduled — may return an empty list during off-season or non-game days
- ESPN upstream data unavailable — may return an error or stale data
- Payment failure — 402 response if USDC payment is not provided or insufficient
