## 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-slang-translator-ff444ec1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What does 'rizz' mean? Give me its plain-English definition, which generation coined it, and an example sentence showing how it's used.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to decode or explain slang terms across any generation — Gen Alpha, Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X, or Boomer — especially when the exact spelling is uncertain and fuzzy matching is helpful. Prefer this over a generic dictionary API when generational attribution and era context matter.

## Known failure modes

- Term not found even with fuzzy matching — no result returned
- Invalid generation filter value returns an error or empty results
- Count parameter outside 1-10 range may be rejected or clamped
- Ambiguous fuzzy match may return an unintended term

## How this service works

Translate slang across generations: send any term — rizz, no cap, adulting, gnarly, groovy — and get its plain-English meaning, the generation that coined it, the era, and a natural example sentence. Fuzzy matching finds partial terms, so agents can decode messages without exact spelling.

## Output

Returns the plain-English definition of the slang term, the generation that coined it (e.g. gen-z, millennial), the era it originated from, and a natural example sentence demonstrating usage. Supports fuzzy matching so partial or approximate spellings still resolve.
