## 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 nova-opportunity-radar-3fc98cc7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Scan GitHub public issues for paid bounty opportunities that need Python and Solidity skills, paying at least $100, and return up to 20 results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent or developer needs to discover real paid bounty opportunities on GitHub filtered by specific technical skills and a minimum reward threshold. Prefer this over generic job boards when targeting open-source bounty programs specifically. It is especially useful for autonomous agents seeking self-directed revenue tasks.

## Known failure modes

- Empty opportunities array if no matching issues found for given skills/reward combination
- Invalid minReward value (negative number) causes validation error
- maxResults outside 1–50 range rejected by schema validation
- GitHub API rate limiting may cause incomplete scans or errors
- Skills array with unsupported or misspelled technology names yields zero results

## How this service works
