## 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-yield-lending-api-baa2e76e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current lending and borrowing APY rates for USDC and DAI across major DeFi protocols like Aave and Compound right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time DeFi lending and borrowing yield data and are operating in a crypto-native, pay-per-request context using USDC on Base. Prefer this over manual protocol queries when aggregating rates across multiple platforms in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported asset symbol returns error
- Protocol or chain not supported returns empty or error result
- Downstream data provider outage causes stale or missing rates
- Malformed POST body causes 400 error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) blocks request at x402 layer
