## 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 gateway-grapevine-fyi-f7ef6cd8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Fetch the content stored at IPFS CID bafybeif5ck7iuvkdq5n2a2hxxvbwaoade3p43pbyp2jhb355bg6yl7y3fa through the Grapevine gateway — I know it costs 0.5 USDC on Base.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve content from IPFS via a reliable, monetized gateway and the specific CID is known. Prefer this over free public gateways when reliability and uptime matter, or when the content is access-controlled behind a micropayment. This endpoint costs 0.5 USDC, making it appropriate for higher-value or larger content retrieval compared to the 0.01 USDC sibling endpoints.

## Known failure modes

- CID not found or unpinned — 404 response
- Insufficient payment or payment verification failure — 402 response
- CID is malformed or not a valid IPFS content identifier — 400 bad request
- Gateway timeout if content is not readily available on the IPFS network
- Base network congestion causing payment settlement delay

## How this service works
