## 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 lenscrypt-gas-tracker-chain-gas-price-lookup-c9f4fa9e
```

Example prompt: What are the current gas prices on Ethereum right now — I want to know if it's cheap enough to send a transaction.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time gas fee data for a specific blockchain before executing a DeFi transaction, swap, or on-chain operation. Prefer this over generic gas APIs when you are already using LensCrypt's suite of crypto intelligence tools and want a unified, pay-per-call solution without a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or unrecognized chain identifier returns an error
- Network congestion or upstream provider outage may return stale or unavailable data
- Malformed chain parameter in URL path causes 400/404 response
- Payment not fulfilled via x402 protocol results in 402 Payment Required
- Vercel cold start may add latency on first call
