## 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 kihustle-burn-rate-calculator-8d9d0018 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I have $18,000 in cash, my side hustle brings in $2,000 per month, and my monthly expenses are $3,500 — can you calculate my burn rate and tell me how long my money will last?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, lightweight computation of burn rate and cash runway for a solo project, side hustle, or early-stage startup without setting up a full accounting system. Prefer this over spreadsheet calculations when you want a programmatic, agent-callable result for financial planning automation.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (cash_balance, monthly_expenses) result in error response
- Non-numeric values for financial fields cause validation failure
- Zero or negative cash balance may produce unexpected runway calculations
- Server-side errors return generic processed/success envelope with no detail
