## 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 inkbox-ai-content-studio-dumb-down-d288dc4a -d '<json body>'

Example prompt: Can you dumb down this paragraph so it's easy for a non-technical person to understand? Here's the text: 'The recursive neural network employs backpropagation through time to optimize its stochastic gradient descent loss function across sequential data representations.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to automatically simplify or translate complex, jargon-heavy, technical, legal, or academic text into plain language for a general audience. Ideal for content pipelines, onboarding flows, patient communication, or anywhere readability is a priority. Prefer this over general rewrite endpoints when the explicit goal is simplification and accessibility rather than tone or style adjustment.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'text' field returns an error response
- Empty string input may return an error or unhelpful output
- Very long texts may hit token limits or produce truncated results
- Network or platform availability issues on Netlify hosting
- Ambiguous or already-simple input may produce minimally changed output
