## 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 freysa-intelligence-base-network-gas-price-lookup-c9a2a150 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current gas prices on Base right now — give me the base fee plus fast, standard, and slow estimates in gwei?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need gas price data for the Base (Coinbase L2) network. If you need to compare gas across multiple EVM chains, use the sibling 'cheapest EVM chain' endpoint instead. Best for agents that need to gate transaction execution on real-time Base gas conditions.

## Known failure modes

- Network unavailability of Base RPC nodes may cause stale or missing data
- Payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Timeout if the underlying gas oracle is slow to respond
- Malformed response if Base network is undergoing congestion or an upgrade
