## 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 jsonplaceholder-comments-api-via-rotary-agency-83204b00
```

Example prompt: Fetch me the placeholder comment data from the JSONPlaceholder comments endpoint — I need the comment records including name, email, and body fields for testing my app.

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when you need quick access to structured placeholder comment data (with name, email, body fields) in a paid/metered API context, particularly when integrating mock data sources into an x402 payment-enabled agentic workflow. Not suitable for real comment data — this is purely synthetic test data.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream JSONPlaceholder service unavailable — returns 5xx or timeout
- Payment not processed correctly via x402 — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid endpoint path — returns 404
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — returns 429
