## 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 kino402-faceless-explainer-video-prompt-cf29d789 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Generate a faceless explainer video prompt and render plan for a 10-second vertical 9:16 clip about how blockchain micropayments work — narrated b-roll, no presenter on screen.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a compiled, model-ready prompt and render plan for a 10-second vertical faceless explainer video without needing to supply your own prompt engineering. Ideal for agents building automated social content pipelines where no on-camera presenter is desired and the topic can be explained through narrated b-roll. Prefer over raw model APIs when you want a ready-made prompt with parametric x402 pricing before committing to a full render.

## Known failure modes

- HTTP 402 returned on unpaid request (contains exact price quote for the submitted body — this is expected behavior, not an error)
- Body exceeds 16 KB limit — request rejected
- Malformed JSON body — validation error returned
- Missing required 'input' field — schema validation failure
- Network timeout if upstream prompt compiler is slow

## How this service works

Finished video, one request, pay per call. Frontier video models priced per call in USDC on Base or Solana. The unpaid 402 is the quote.

## Output

A JSON response containing the compiled prompt string ready for video rendering, a render plan specifying model (seedance-1.5-pro), duration in seconds (10s), resolution (720p), and aspect ratio (9:16), plus the price in USD and atomic USDC. No video is actually rendered — this endpoint returns the prompt and plan only.
