## 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 india-weather-api-monsoon-rainfall-forecast-by-state-1dd961be
```

Example prompt: What's the 7-day monsoon rainfall forecast for Kerala? Pay the micropayment via x402 and give me precipitation in mm for the sampled locations.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need rainfall or precipitation forecasts specifically for Indian states, want to pay per-call without signing up for an account or API key, and are operating in an x402-capable micropayment environment on Base. Ideal for agents that need occasional India-specific monsoon data rather than a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided or insufficient — returns HTTP 402 requiring x402 USDC payment on Base
- Invalid or unrecognized state name in path — may return empty data array or error
- State name misspelled or not matching expected format — no results returned
- Network timeout or upstream open-meteo outage — service unavailable error
- Rate limiting if too many requests in quick succession

## How this service works

Pay-per-request 7-day weather forecasts for Indian cities. Powered by x402 — pay $0.001 USDC per call on Base, no account or API key needed.
