## 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 nie-validation-spanish-nie-number-checker-cb502b82 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether X1234567L is a valid Spanish NIE number?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, per-call, no-signup programmatic check of a Spanish NIE number's validity — ideal for form validation, KYC pipelines, or data quality checks where you only need to verify format and checksum without a full identity lookup against a government registry.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed NIE string (wrong length, invalid starting letter, or bad checksum) returns ok: false
- Missing or empty 'nie' field in request body causes validation error
- Non-string input types may cause a schema error
- Payment failure via x402 prevents the call from being processed

## How this service works

The OpenRouter for AI-agent tools: one gateway, one wallet, every capability. Built-in tools, forged tools, a global verified business directory and 2,000+ aggregated x402 services, all paid per call in USDC via x402 (HTTP 402). No signup, no API key.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with an 'ok' boolean indicating whether the provided NIE string is valid (correctly formatted and passes the checksum algorithm used by Spanish authorities for foreigner identification numbers)
