## 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 glianaai-nano-banana-2-lite-text-to-image-f474806b

Example prompt: Can you generate an image of a sun-drenched Moroccan rooftop at golden hour with terracotta pots and trailing bougainvillea using GlianaAI's nano-banana-2-lite model?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, low-cost text-to-image generation without any signup or subscription, paying only $0.046 per call in USDC. Prefer nano-banana-2-lite over heavier models (flux-2-pro, imagen-4, grok-imagine) when speed and cost efficiency matter more than maximum quality — it is the lightest variant in the nano-banana family. Ideal for high-throughput agent pipelines generating many images on demand with crypto micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance or failed x402 micropayment results in 402 Payment Required
- Empty or missing prompt body causes a 400 Bad Request
- Model temporarily unavailable returns a 503 or timeout error
- Generated image ID expires if the media URL is not retrieved promptly
- Malformed input JSON (wrong bodyType or method) returns a 422 validation error
