## 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 gocreative-youtube-lookup-9cbe9266
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the YouTube channel stats for MrBeast — I want to see their subscriber count, description, and other metadata?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-call YouTube channel or video metadata without signing up for a YouTube Data API key. Ideal for AI agents that need on-demand YouTube lookups billed per call in USDC via x402, especially in agentic workflows where API key management is impractical.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent YouTube channel/video ID returns an error or empty result
- Payment failure via x402 prevents the call from completing
- Malformed input query string causes a 400-level error
- YouTube data temporarily unavailable causes a 5xx error
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion on the underlying data source

## How this service works

Keyless, pay-per-call compliance & regulated-data API for AI agents — OFAC wallet + sanctions/PEP + KYB screening, SEC filings, FRED economics, FDA recalls, federal awards, plus continuous monitoring. USDC on Base/Solana via x402, native MCP. No API key, no signup.

## Output

Returns YouTube channel or video metadata such as subscriber counts, view counts, descriptions, upload counts, and other public statistics associated with the queried identifier.
