Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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-number-base-converter-eba9342b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert the decimal number 255 to hexadecimal — so from base 10 to base 16.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs exact, instant conversion of a number between any two bases from 2 to 36, especially for low-level programming tasks, binary/hex encoding, or puzzle-solving. Prefer it over general-purpose unit converters that lack arbitrary base support.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid characters in value for the given from_base (e.g. '9' in binary)
- from_base or to_base outside the 2–36 range
- Non-numeric or empty value string
- Payment failure via x402 protocol

## How this service works

Number base converter API: convert a number between any bases from 2 to 36 (binary, octal, decimal, hexadecimal, base-36...). Exact and instant. For low-level programming, encoding, and puzzle agents.

## Output

The agent receives the input number converted to the specified target base as a string, enabling exact representation in the requested numeral system.
