## 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 faa-us-airport-status-04138966
```

Example prompt: Can you check the current FAA status for all US airports and tell me which ones have ground stops, closures, or delays right now, and what's causing them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, official FAA-sourced airport status across all US airports simultaneously. Prefer this over scraping FAA website directly or using unofficial sources. Ideal for flight planning agents, travel assistants, and airline operations monitoring where real-time ground truth from the FAA is required. Best when you need a zero-parameter sweep of all currently affected airports rather than looking up a single airport's schedule.

## Known failure modes

- FAA data feed temporarily unavailable — upstream outage returns error or empty response
- No disruptions active — returns empty list (not an error, just no disruptions)
- Payment failure — x402 micropayment not accepted, returns 402 status
- Rate limiting or authentication failure if payment not properly attached
