## 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 imgnai-katana-chat-completions-api-0b595829 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Using the imgnAI Katana gateway, send a chat completion request with model 'gpt-image-2' and ask it to draw a photorealistic sunset over a mountain lake — limit the response to 1024 tokens.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-call access to frontier models (GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.8, GPT Image 2, Seedance 2.0) without committing to a subscription, or when you want a single OpenAI-compatible interface across LLM, image, and video modalities, or when you want to pay with USDC crypto micropayments via the x402 protocol.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient (0.05425 USDC required)
- 400 Bad Request if required fields 'model' or 'messages' are absent
- 404 or model error if an unsupported model name is passed
- 503 or timeout if upstream model provider is unavailable
- Rate limit or capacity error if too many concurrent requests
