> MailPulse Letter Status & Tracking is a paid API for AI agents from mailpulse.theaslangroupllc.com, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 mailpulse-letter-status-tracking-318be170 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check the status of the physical letter I sent last week — the letter ID is ltr_1a9b185b1c4ee035 — and let me know if it's been rendered, when it's expected to arrive, and the USPS tracking number if it was sent certified?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have already sent a letter via the MailPulse POST /api/letters endpoint and need to check its current processing status, confirm it has been handed off to USPS, retrieve the expected delivery date, or obtain a USPS tracking number for certified mail. This is specifically for post-send status lookups, not for creating new letters.

## Known failure modes

- Letter ID not found — returns error if ltr_... ID doesn't exist or belongs to a different account
- Letter not yet processed — status may be pending if called immediately after submission
- Invalid letter ID format — returns error for malformed IDs
- Payment failure — endpoint requires $0.005 USDC per call via x402 protocol; missing payment returns 402
- Network timeout — occasional latency spikes when querying upstream USPS tracking data

## How this service works

Check the status and tracking of a physical letter previously sent via POST /api/letters. Returns render status, expected delivery date, and (for certified mail) the USPS tracking number.

## Output

Returns the letter's current render status (e.g. processing, rendered, mailed), the expected delivery date, and — for certified mail — the USPS tracking number that can be used to monitor delivery on the USPS website.
