## 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-openweathermap-proxy-9156d3a2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you get me the current weather conditions in London right now — temperature, humidity, and wind speed?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, pay-per-use weather data without managing your own OpenWeatherMap API key, and when paying in USDC on Base chain is acceptable. Suitable for AI agents that need weather lookups on demand without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized location name returns an error or empty result
- Network timeout if OpenWeatherMap upstream is slow
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient on Base chain
- Malformed request body returns a validation error
- Rate limiting or quota errors from the upstream OpenWeatherMap API
