## 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 kenoodl-com-coding-agent-loop-recovery-75b5af7d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I'm stuck in a retry loop — I've made the same edit to fix a null pointer exception three times, the test keeps failing with the same error, and my last three hypotheses were all variations of 'check the initialization order.' Can you give me a structural diagnosis of what frame I'm exhausted in, what hidden variable I'm missing, and what I should actually try next?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a coding agent has exhausted its own retry budget and is demonstrably looping — same edits, same errors, same hypotheses — and needs an external structural read rather than another internal retry. Not suitable for first-attempt debugging or when the agent is still making genuine forward progress.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient context about the retry loop may result in a generic or low-confidence diagnosis
- Malformed POST body may return a 400 error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns a 402 Payment Required response
- If the loop context is ambiguous, the hidden variable identification may be speculative

## How this service works

x402-paid recovery for a coding-agent stuck in a retry loop. Use when retries stop producing: repeated edits, unchanged errors, repeated test failures, or the same hypothesis returning. Returns the loop diagnosis, the exhausted frame, the hidden variable, and the next action — the structural read you can't reach from inside the loop. No account, no session, nothing stored.

## Output

Returns a structured diagnosis object containing: the identified loop pattern, the exhausted reasoning frame the agent is trapped in, the hidden variable not being considered, and a concrete recommended next action to break the loop — all without storing any session or account data.
