## 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-d7e22a8f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you dumb down this paragraph so my readers don't need a PhD to understand it: 'The mitochondrial cristae facilitate the electrochemical gradient essential for ATP synthesis via oxidative phosphorylation, enabling cellular bioenergetics'?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to automatically simplify complex, technical, academic, legal, or jargon-heavy text for a general or non-expert audience. Prefer it over general rewrite endpoints when the explicit goal is reducing reading complexity and improving accessibility.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'text' field returns validation error
- Empty or very short text may yield unhelpful output
- Very long inputs may be truncated or rejected
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Service unavailability on Netlify hosting may cause 5xx errors
