## 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-coingecko-coins-lookup-cfe364b7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the current coin list and market data from CoinGecko for me — I need prices and market caps for the top cryptocurrencies right now?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need CoinGecko coin data without managing your own CoinGecko API key or subscription, and you prefer pay-per-request micropayment billing via USDC on Base. Ideal for agents that make occasional crypto data lookups rather than high-frequency bulk queries where a direct CoinGecko subscription would be more cost-effective.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed input parameters may return an empty or error result
- CoinGecko API rate limits or downtime on the upstream side could cause failures
- Payment of 0.18 USDC on Base chain must succeed before the request is processed — failed payment returns 402
- Unsupported coin IDs or symbols may return empty data sets
