## 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-openweather-api-endpoint-13-5a79bc6a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the current weather conditions for Tokyo right now — I need the temperature, humidity, and general sky conditions?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-use weather data without committing to a monthly OpenWeather subscription, especially in crypto-native or x402-compatible agent workflows where USDC micropayments on Base are preferred over traditional API key billing.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized city/location name returns an error or empty result
- Missing required query parameters may return a generic error
- Payment failure on Base chain prevents request from being processed
- OpenWeather upstream outage causes a failed or stale response
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion on the underlying OpenWeather API
