## 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 generational-slang-dictionary-api-eee2ba09 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What does 'rizz' mean — which generation uses it, what era is it from, and can you give me an example sentence? Also pull me 3 random Gen Alpha slang terms with their definitions.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs to decode or produce generationally authentic slang — translating terms across age groups (Boomer to Gen Alpha), writing in-voice for a specific generation, or explaining what a trending term means. Prefer over a general web search when you want a curated, structured response with generation metadata and usage examples rather than unstructured results.

## Known failure modes

- Term not found in the ~200-term dictionary — returns empty or error response
- Invalid generation filter value returns an error
- Count out of 1–10 range may return an error or default
- Omitting both term and generation returns a single random entry from any generation

## How this service works

Generational slang dictionary spanning boomer to gen-alpha: look up what a slang term means (with origin generation, era, and a usage example), or pull random slang from a chosen generation. Around 200 curated real terms — skibidi to groovy — for agents translating across age groups or writing in-voice.

## Output

Returns a slang term's definition, the generation that uses it (e.g. gen-z, millennial, boomer), the era it originated from, and a usage example sentence. For random requests, returns 1–10 entries matching the chosen generation filter.
