## 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-medium-articles-fetcher-a0362e5f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest Medium articles about machine learning so I can see what topics are trending right now?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Medium article content or metadata without building your own scraper, and when you want pay-per-use pricing via USDC on Base chain rather than a monthly API subscription. Ideal for one-off content research, newsletter curation, or agent workflows that occasionally need Medium content.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported query parameters return a generic error response
- Medium rate limiting or blocking may cause empty results
- No articles found for obscure topics returns an empty data array
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in HTTP 402 before endpoint is reached
- Stale or cached results may not reflect the very latest Medium posts
