Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 openai-gpt-image-1-5-via-mm-family-x402-e39d4a84 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Generate an image of a serene Japanese garden at sunrise with cherry blossoms reflecting in a koi pond — use high quality, 1024x1024 size, and return it as a PNG.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need OpenAI's gpt-image-1.5 model with x402 USDC micropayment support, want fine-grained quality control (low/medium/high) with predictable per-call token costs, or need to integrate image generation into an autonomous agent pipeline without OAuth or API keys — just pay-per-use in stablecoins. Prefer over chatgpt-image-latest when you want a stable, versioned model rather than OpenAI's rolling latest release.

## Known failure modes

- Prompt rejected by moderation — returns error if content violates OpenAI policy
- 'auto' quality value refused — must explicitly pass 'low', 'medium', or 'high'
- Payment failure — x402 payment not completed or insufficient USDC balance
- Invalid size or format enum value — returns 400 error
- Model field mismatch — must specify 'gpt-image-1.5' exactly

## How this service works

gpt-image-1.5: OpenAI GPT Image 1.5 image generation, paid per call in USDC. OpenAI list $32 per 1M image tokens (1024x1024: low 272, medium 1056, high 4160 tokens), text in $5 per 1M, plus $0.0005 (Base) or $0.0005 (Solana) per call. Send size and quality (auto is refused); omitted means 1024x1024 medium. Returns b64_json. Rates: https://openai.mm.family/x402/pricing

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a `data` array containing a `b64_json` field (base64-encoded image), plus metadata including `size`, `quality`, `output_format`, `created` timestamp, and `usage` token counts (input_tokens, output_tokens, total_tokens).
