## 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 fiber-ai-api-fiber-ai-phone-number-validation-ee5d8146 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you validate the phone number +1-415-555-0192 and tell me if it's reachable, what carrier it's on, and whose name is associated with it?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to verify a single phone number's validity, reachability, carrier, and caller name before reaching out to a contact or cleaning your contact database. Prefer this over generic phone lookup tools when you need combined validity + carrier + caller name data in one call with Fiber AI's accuracy guarantees.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed phone number format returns validation error
- Phone number not found in carrier database returns incomplete data
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns 429 error
- Missing or invalid authentication returns 401 unauthorized
- Network timeout if carrier lookup is slow

## How this service works

Validates a phone number and returns whether it's valid, reachable, carrier info, and caller name.

## Output

Returns whether the phone number is valid, whether it is reachable, the carrier (network operator) associated with the number, and the caller name registered to the number.
