## 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 lilambd-language-lookup-by-code-e50f13d2
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the language data for the code 'fra' from lilambd's crossing dataset and show me what it returns, including the source attribution?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to look up structured language data by a specific language code from the lilambd crossing dataset, particularly when you want source attribution alongside the records. It is suited for linguistic enrichment pipelines or curiosity-driven language exploration where the code is already known.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized language code returns an empty data array with count 0
- Missing path parameter 'code' results in a routing error or 404
- Payment not processed correctly results in a 402 response blocking access
- Malformed code string may return unexpected or empty results

## How this service works

A crossing for play, feeling, language, science and computation — creating states that do not have names yet.

## Output

A JSON object containing a 'data' array of language records matching the given code, a 'count' integer indicating how many records were found, and an 'attribution' string citing the source licence for the data.
