## 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 openweather-weather-overview-via-locus-x402-2a6ebf46 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the weather overview for New York City today — coordinates 40.7128, -74.0060 — in imperial units?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a concise, natural-language weather overview for a specific geographic coordinate and a date of today or tomorrow, rather than raw numeric forecast data. It is ideal for agents that need to present human-readable weather summaries without post-processing large forecast arrays. It suits use cases where a narrative description is more useful than structured multi-field weather data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid latitude/longitude values outside allowed range return an error
- Date outside the available window (only today and tomorrow supported) may return an error or default to today
- Malformed date format (not YYYY-MM-DD) causes a bad request error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance prevents the call from completing
- Invalid units value (not standard, metric, or imperial) may cause an error or default behavior

## How this service works

Global weather data — current conditions, 5-day forecasts, hourly forecasts, air quality index with pollutants, geocoding, and One Call 3.0 with full weather suite and government alerts.

## Output
