## 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-exchange-rates-api-772db4df -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you get me the current exchange rate from USD to EUR using the KiteEndpoints.ai hub?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need pay-per-request currency exchange rate lookups via USDC micropayments on Base chain, without a subscription. Good for infrequent or agent-driven forex lookups where a full subscription to a dedicated forex API is not warranted.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid currency codes returns an error or empty result
- Payment of 0.12 USDC not provided or insufficient balance causes 402 Payment Required
- Rate data temporarily unavailable from upstream provider returns an error
- Malformed request body returns a validation error
