## 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 fastx402-video-to-gif-converter-11040264
```

Example prompt: Convert the first 5 seconds of this video to a GIF at 10fps and 480 pixels wide: https://example.com/myclip.mp4

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, no-auth, pay-per-call conversion of a remote video URL to an animated GIF with fine-grained control over start/end time, frame rate, and output width. Ideal for AI agents that need to produce shareable preview GIFs on demand without provisioning API keys or managing media pipelines. Cost is $0.01 USDC per call via x402, making it suitable for low-volume or bursty workloads.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable video URL returns an error — ensure the URL is a publicly accessible http/https link
- Unsupported file format (e.g. non-video URL) returns a format error
- fps out of range (outside 1–15) or width out of range (outside 64–800) returns a validation error
- Start/end time out of bounds relative to actual video duration causes an error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) blocks the request before processing
- Large video files may time out depending on network latency to the source

## How this service works

200 pay-per-call tools for AI agents, from $0.001 per request in USDC on Base or Solana with x402. No account, no API key.

## Output

A JSON object containing the URL to the hosted GIF file (with expiry), the GIF's byte size, input file byte size, frame rate, width in pixels, duration in seconds, MIME type (image/gif), start time offset, and an expiration timestamp after which the hosted file may no longer be available.
