## 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 padelmaps-org-smart-contract-decoder-f1dbe8fc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you decode and explain in plain English what this smart contract does? The address is 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 on Ethereum.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a user needs a quick, AI-generated plain-English explanation of what a smart contract does without reading raw code or ABI. Ideal for non-technical users, DeFi researchers, or anyone auditing an unfamiliar contract address. Prefer over manual ABI inspection when a narrative summary is needed rather than raw data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed contract address returns an error
- Contract address not found on specified chain returns not-found error
- Unverified or undeployable contract with no ABI may return incomplete analysis
- Unsupported blockchain network returns an error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or 429 status

## How this service works

Decode and analyze smart contract with AI-powered plain English explanation

## Output

An AI-generated plain-English explanation of the smart contract, including what it does, its key functions, and its behavior — making the contract understandable without needing to read raw Solidity code.
