## 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 multi-agent-deadlock-breaker-mcp-a5fa8afe -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: My multi-agent pipeline is stuck — two agents are waiting on each other and neither can proceed. Can you analyze this deadlock situation and tell me how to break it so the workflow can continue?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a concrete multi-agent or distributed system deadlock caused by circular resource waits or agent interdependencies, and you need an automated resolution recommendation without manually tracing the dependency graph yourself.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed or insufficient agent state data in the 'data' field returns an error or unhelpful resolution
- Deadlock scenario too complex or ambiguous for automated resolution
- API returns 402 if payment header is missing or USDC balance is insufficient
- Non-deadlock coordination issues may be misclassified

## How this service works

The premier global index of 1,069 monetized MCP nodes across 205 specialized subdomains. Gasless USDC runtime settlements via x402 V2 Spec on Base L2. Save 95% token context.

## Output

Returns a resolution strategy or set of instructions indicating which agent or resource lock should be preempted, reordered, or released to break the deadlock and restore forward progress in the multi-agent system.
