## 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-bee48a4d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest Medium articles about machine learning from the author 'towardsdatascience' so I can summarize them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Medium articles without managing Medium API credentials directly, and you want pay-per-use USDC billing on Base chain instead of a subscription. Best for one-off lookups, agent pipelines, or when you want to avoid Medium's own API rate limits and auth complexity.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent Medium username returns empty or error result
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient on Base chain
- Malformed request body returns API error
- Medium content unavailable or geo-restricted returns no data
