## 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 maine-coon-bear-grounding-companion-experience-75a2b3b7
```

Example prompt: I'm feeling scattered and need something to help me feel grounded and present — give me a solid, anchoring companion experience to settle my weight before I dive into work.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent or user needs a grounding, stabilizing, or centering experience — particularly one themed around solidity and weight rather than lightness or energy. It is distinct from other Substrate Symposium endpoints that focus on memory (Rosemary), delicacy (Maidenhair Fern), or ephemeral experiences (Cherry Blossom). Prefer Bear when the goal is anchoring presence rather than reflection, recovery, or endurance.

## Known failure modes

- Network error or service unavailability returning a non-200 status
- Payment failure if x402 micropayment of $0.01 USDC is not processed correctly
- Empty or malformed response body if the content generation fails
- Rate limiting if called too frequently in a short window
