## 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-pre-trade-api-0d52fb6d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run a pre-trade check on my intended crypto trade using the KiteEndpoints.ai hub and tell me if the conditions look good to proceed.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to perform a pre-trade validation or analysis step before committing to a financial trade, particularly in crypto contexts, and are willing to pay $0.20 USDC per call via the x402 protocol on Base chain. Prefer this over building custom pre-trade logic when you want a managed, pay-per-request solution.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed result object in request body returns an error
- Insufficient USDC balance on Base chain causes payment failure and 402 response
- Ambiguous or empty input data may return a generic or empty result object
- Network or provider downtime may cause timeouts or 5xx errors
