## 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-claude-ai-api-via-mega-hub-ee532dc7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Use the KiteEndpoints Claude hub to generate a short product description for a standing desk — pay per request in USDC on Base chain.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need Claude AI capabilities on a pay-per-request basis without a monthly subscription, and you are already set up to pay with USDC on the Base chain via x402 protocol. Useful for low-volume or bursty AI workloads where subscription costs are not justified.

## Known failure modes

- Payment insufficient — 402 response if USDC payment not included or below $0.07
- Malformed request body — missing or invalid result object schema
- Hub routing error — upstream Claude API unavailable
- Base chain payment validation failure — transaction not confirmed
- Rate limit exceeded on the hub side
