## 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 newbotlabor-translate-a8f6ba30 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Translate this Markdown readme from English to Simplified Chinese — keep 'Agent Preflight' and 'x402' untouched as literal terms, and use a clear, concise, technical tone.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-call en↔zh translation with no account or API key setup, especially when you need glossary-enforced term preservation or Markdown-safe translation. It is ideal for autonomous agents that need lightweight, metered translation without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Text exceeds 12,000 character limit — request rejected
- Invalid target language enum value — validation error
- Unsupported source language (only en/zh auto-detection supported) — may produce incorrect results
- Payment failure via x402 — 402 response, translation not performed
- Malformed JSON body — 400 error
- Network timeout for large documents

## How this service works

Pay-per-call utilities for autonomous agents, paid with x402 (USDC on Base; no account, no API key).

## Output

Returns a JSON object with ok:true on success, the translated string, detected source and target language codes, character count, and a glossary coverage report indicating which glossary terms were protected, missing, or duplicated.
