## 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 manylives-video-clip-brief-compliance-checker-292b061e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check whether this sponsored BlendCo clip is ready to post: caption is 'Ad: I tried the BlendCo Pro for a week @blendco #blendco', video is 1080×1920 pixels, 28 seconds long, and the brief requires the hashtag #blendco and mention @blendco, no banned terms like 'cheap', and a duration between 15 and 60 seconds in 9:16 ratio.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically verify that a specific video clip's metadata (caption, duration, dimensions, transcript) satisfies a structured campaign brief before posting or submitting to a brand. It is purpose-built for influencer/UGC compliance workflows and returns structured per-rule pass/fail detail — prefer it over manual review, generic text classifiers, or LLM prompting when you need deterministic, auditable compliance checks against a well-defined brief schema.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (e.g. no caption or brief) — returns validation error
- Brief JSON is malformed or contains unknown keys — may silently ignore unknown keys or return a parse error
- Transcript not in SRT/WebVTT format — disclosure phrases in audio may not be detected
- Very long transcripts or captions may cause latency spikes
- Edge cases in hashtag detection (e.g. mid-sentence hashtags) may produce unexpected pass/fail results
- If 'sponsored' field is omitted, disclosure checks may not apply correctly

## How this service works

Pay-per-call tools for people building AI agents: live web search and page contents, prompt-injection checks, market data and risk sizing for trading agents, company profiles and quick AI. Ask us to turn a public website into a JSON endpoint. Pay per call, no account, free trial.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a 'ready' boolean (true/false), a 'fails' array listing which checks did not pass, a 'warns' array of advisory issues, and a 'checks' array with per-rule objects containing check name, detail string, and pass/fail status. Allows the caller to see exactly which brief requirements the clip violates and why.
