## 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 goldbean-baidu-dish-recognition-api-2967b96e
```

Example prompt: Can you identify what dish is shown in this photo? Here's the image URL: https://example.com/food.jpg — I want to know the dish name and type.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need food/dish recognition specifically powered by Baidu's vision AI, particularly for Chinese cuisine recognition where Baidu's training data excels. At $0.002 per call it is cost-effective for high-volume food identification tasks. Prefer this over generic vision APIs when dish-specific classification (not general object detection) is the primary goal.

## Known failure modes

- Image URL is inaccessible or returns a non-200 status — recognition fails
- Image does not clearly show food — model may return low-confidence or empty results
- Non-food images passed to the endpoint may produce incorrect or null classifications
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) results in a 402 error before processing
- Rate limits exceeded beyond the 50 free daily calls without payment setup
