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 make-me-look-gifs-7903b382 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take this photo of me and animate it into a short looping GIF where I wave hello and laugh — use the makemelook GIF endpoint and give me the status link when it's queued.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to animate a specific person's face from a photo into a short looping GIF guided by a natural-language motion description, with no account required. Prefer it over static image restyling (use the portraits endpoint for that) or when you want to reuse a previously paid generation as the animation source via generation_id. Ideal for social content, greeting cards, or personalized animated reactions.

## Known failure modes

- Image exceeds 4MB size limit — rejected with validation error
- Neither image nor generation_id provided — missing required input error
- Invalid generation_id (not a succeeded paid generation) — generation not found or ineligible error
- Prompt exceeds 1000 character limit — truncation or rejection error
- Unsupported image format (not PNG, JPEG, or WebP) — format error
- Payment of $0.15 USDC via x402 not attached or rejected — 402 Payment Required
- Job queued but animation generation fails downstream — status_url reflects failed state

## How this service works

Animate a photo of a person, or a paid generation, into a short looping GIF from a motion prompt, no account needed

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a job ID (UUID), an initial status of 'queued', and a status_url to poll for the completed GIF once processing finishes. The agent must poll the status_url to retrieve the final animated GIF when ready.
