## 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 forgemesh-airport-lookup-369761e5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What airport does the code LHR refer to — give me the full name, city, country, coordinates, and timezone.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, offline-quality resolution of IATA or ICAO codes to structured airport metadata — especially when timezone accuracy, coordinates, or country context are needed for travel planning, flight scheduling, or logistics routing. Ideal for agents that process flight data and need enrichment without scraping or calling a large external API. At $0.003 per call it is cost-effective for high-volume pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown IATA/ICAO code returns a 404 (no charge)
- Malformed code (wrong length or invalid characters) returns an error
- Code that is valid but not in the 29,000+ airport database returns 404
- Network timeout or service unavailability

## How this service works
