## 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-phone-number-validator-07d22639 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if this phone number is valid: +49 30 12345678?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call phone number validation step within an automated workflow and already use x402/USDC micropayment infrastructure. It is suitable for single phone number checks at low cost ($0.002 per call). Prefer dedicated telecom validation APIs (e.g. Twilio Lookup, Numverify) if you need carrier lookups, line-type detection, or high-volume batch validation with richer response schemas.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'text' field returns an error or unexpected result
- Non-string input may cause a parsing error
- Malformed JSON request body results in a 4xx response
- Service may return generic 'processed/success' even for clearly invalid strings due to limited schema transparency
- Network timeout or 402 payment failure if USDC payment is not properly attached
