## 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 gentech-route-12f6f1e0
```

Example prompt: Route a GET request through GenTech Labs' x402 gateway with no extra headers or path params — just a standard HTTP GET type request.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to route read-only or idempotent HTTP requests (GET, HEAD, DELETE) through a Web3-native, x402 micropayment-gated gateway, especially when operating in a Base Network / USDC payment context and want per-call billing without a subscription. Prefer over traditional proxies when your agent stack already handles x402 payment flows.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'type' or 'method' fields returns a 400 validation error
- Invalid method (e.g. POST) not in enum [GET, HEAD, DELETE] causes rejection
- Insufficient USDC balance for x402 payment results in 402 Payment Required
- Network timeout if the routed destination is unresponsive
- Malformed query or path params may cause downstream routing failure

## How this service works

GenTech Labs x402 - Route

## Output

The agent receives an HTTP response routed through GenTech Labs' x402 infrastructure, including any response headers and body data returned by the underlying target, delivered after automatic USDC micropayment processing.
