## 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 omniac-0000402-xyz-3e55b963 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Ask Omniac, the Omniacs DAO AI on Base Mainnet, to explain what a liquidity pool is in DeFi — it costs $0.01 USDC per question.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs a quick, inexpensive ($0.01 USDC) AI-generated explanation or answer on crypto, blockchain, data science, or general tech topics. Ideal for agent knowledge lookups, crypto explainers, and technical Q&A where a short, direct answer is sufficient and cost per query matters. Prefer over general-purpose LLM APIs when on-chain micropayment via x402/Base is already in the workflow.

## Known failure modes

- Question exceeds 2000 characters — request rejected
- Insufficient USDC balance on Base Mainnet — payment fails
- Network or Venice.ai backend unavailable — 5xx error
- Malformed JSON request body — 4xx validation error
- Question outside supported domains (crypto, data science, tech) — may receive a low-quality or off-topic answer
