## 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 money-reactor-base-blockchain-block-number-3e976446
```

Example prompt: What's the current block number on the Base network right now, including the hex value and when it was recorded?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call block number lookup on the Base (eip155:8453) network without setting up API keys or accounts. Ideal for agents operating in x402-native environments where micropayment-settled, keyless infrastructure is preferred. Best suited when you want current block height with a timestamp for anchoring on-chain events or verifying chain state.

## Known failure modes

- Network or Cloudflare worker outage returns a 5xx error
- x402 payment not completed returns HTTP 402 with payment requirements
- Stale or slightly lagged block number if the worker cache hasn't refreshed
- Malformed response if Base RPC is temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Agent-native micro APIs: hourly-refreshed feed of funded crypto bounty opportunities, GitHub repository honeypot trust scoring, live crypto spot prices and web page reading. Payment via x402 protocol (HTTP 402), USDC on Base (eip155:8453). x402 v1 and v2 compatible; instant settle via Coinbase CDP facilitator. No accounts, no API keys.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the current Base network block number as an integer (blockNumber), its hexadecimal equivalent (hex), the network name ('base'), and an ISO 8601 timestamp (at) indicating when the data was recorded.
