## 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-defillama-tvl-lookup-5e26d52e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the current total value locked in Aave according to DeFiLlama?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-request access to DeFiLlama TVL data without setting up a direct DeFiLlama API integration. Ideal for AI agents that need on-demand DeFi TVL lookups as part of a broader multi-API workflow using USDC micropayments on Base chain.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled protocol name returns an error or empty result
- Protocol not tracked by DeFiLlama returns no data
- Payment failure in USDC on Base chain prevents request from executing
- Network timeout if DeFiLlama upstream is slow or unavailable
- Rate limiting or request rejection if payment not correctly processed

## How this service works

400+ paid API endpoints. Social media, AI, crypto, finance, weather, ecommerce, tools. Pay per request with USDC on Base chain.

## Output

Returns TVL data for the specified DeFi protocol, including current total value locked figures and related metrics sourced from DeFiLlama's aggregated on-chain data.
