## 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 jarvisclaw-ai-api-gateway-marketplace-endpoint-196-dfc5c5f8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Send my AI completion request through JarvisClaw's marketplace endpoint #196 — it's the pay-per-call gateway that settles in USDC on Base and is OpenAI-compatible, so just pass my query and handle the x402 micropayment automatically.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need an OpenAI-compatible AI API that supports pay-per-call micropayment billing in USDC without a subscription, especially in autonomous agent or Web3 contexts where x402 payment flows on Base or Solana are already integrated. It is well-suited for agents that need flexible, usage-based AI access with crypto-native settlement.

## Known failure modes

- Payment settlement transaction fails on-chain due to network congestion
- Endpoint #196 may be unavailable or deprecated if the marketplace listing is removed
- Rate limiting on the gateway returns 429 Too Many Requests
