## 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 mealpulse-leftover-transformer-23a8c045
```

Example prompt: I have leftover roasted chicken, cooked quinoa, half a bell pepper, and some spinach in my fridge — can you transform those into 2 or 3 creative meal ideas and let me know if there are any food safety things I should watch out for?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when the user has a known set of leftover or on-hand ingredients and needs creative meal suggestions alongside food safety context — especially useful for reducing food waste and quick weeknight decisions. Prefer over a general recipe builder when the constraint is existing leftovers rather than building a meal from scratch.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty ingredient list returns an error or empty result
- Unrecognized ingredient names may yield generic or irrelevant suggestions
- Payment failure (x402) results in 402 response before any meal data is returned
- Server unavailability on Vercel returns 503 or timeout
- Ingredients that are inherently unsafe or spoiled may not be flagged correctly if only names are provided
