## 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 open-holidays-subdivisions-lookup-273cc780
```

Example prompt: What subdivisions or states are available for Germany in the Open Holidays system so I can look up school holiday schedules?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover valid subdivision identifiers before querying school holiday or public holiday data for a specific country. It is a prerequisite lookup step for parameterizing other open-holidays endpoints that require a subdivision code.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported country code returns empty list or 400 error
- Missing required query parameters returns validation error
- Country not covered by Open Holidays data returns empty result
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or 429 error
