## 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 novapath-nonprofit-role-archetype-matcher-e86fdc0c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you match this nonprofit role profile against the standard archetypes — duties intensities are [2,1,3,0,1,2,0,1], budget authority is 'approve', people authority is 'supervisor', and it's not a regulated practice — and tell me the top three archetype candidates with explanations and any mismatches?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to map a nonprofit-specific responsibility profile to one of 12 purpose-built role archetypes with explainable reasoning and mismatch identification. It is best suited for HR teams, nonprofit consultants, or AI agents classifying nonprofit positions where standard corporate job frameworks don't apply. Prefer this over generic job classification APIs when the organization is explicitly nonprofit and the rubric-based, archetype-comparison output (with evidence questions) is more useful than salary-matched or O*NET-style classifications.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid duty array length (must be exactly 8 integers 0–3) returns a validation error
- Out-of-range duty intensity values cause rejection
- Invalid enum value for budgetAuthority or peopleAuthority causes a bad request error
- Missing required fields return an error indicating which field is absent
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in a 402 response before processing

## How this service works

Compare a bounded responsibility profile with 12 original nonprofit role archetypes. Returns three explainable candidates, mismatches and evidence questions. Authored rubric, not validated job classification or salary matching.

## Output

Returns three ranked nonprofit role archetype candidates, each with an explainability rationale, identified mismatches between the submitted profile and the archetype, and evidence questions the user should investigate to confirm or refute the match. This is an authored rubric output, not a validated job classification or salary benchmark.
