## 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-source-maintainer-activity-research-for-security-teams-d2c7578a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you research maintainer activity and health signals for the 'log4j' open-source project — check GitHub release cadence, issue response times, and any recent contributor activity — and give me up to 7 results?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a security team needs fast, live web-sourced signals about an open-source project's maintainer health without direct GitHub API access — ideal for supply chain risk assessments, dependency vetting workflows, or monitoring for signs of project abandonment. Prefer it over static database lookups when freshness of maintainer activity data matters.

## Known failure modes

- Vague or overly broad query returns generic results not specific to the target project
- Project has minimal public web presence, yielding few or no useful results
- Max results cap (10) limits depth for large projects with many signals
- Live web search latency or availability issues may delay or fail the response
- Query mismatch between project name and how it appears in search results
