## 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 kiteendpoints-ai-barcode-generation-api-01a26eeb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you generate a barcode for product SKU 'ABC-12345' so I can print it on a label?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-request barcode generation without setting up a dedicated barcode library, especially in agent workflows needing on-demand barcodes for inventory, retail labels, or logistics with USDC micropayment billing on Base chain.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported barcode format returns an error response
- Empty or malformed input data causes generation failure
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) blocks request
- Rate limiting or server errors from the hosted Vercel endpoint
- Unsupported character set in input string causes encoding error
