## 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 payroll-input-imports-category-allowlist-check-015db386 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check my payroll CSV for any department_id values that aren't in the approved list — allowed categories are 'group-a', 'group-b', and 'group-c', comma-delimited, up to 1000 rows: pay_id,period_ends_on,department_id,gross_pay,deductions\nrecord-a,2026-01-01,group-a,10,2\nrecord-b,2026-01-02,group-z,20,3

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a lightweight, per-call validation of payroll CSV category/department fields against a known allowlist before importing into a payroll system. It is ideal for automated pre-import compliance checks in payroll pipelines where the category set is fixed and known ahead of time. Prefer this over a generic CSV validator when you specifically need category/department allowlist enforcement logic tailored to payroll data structures.

## Known failure modes

- CSV exceeds 100,000 character limit — request rejected
- More than 1000 rows submitted — validation may be truncated or rejected
- Invalid delimiter specified — must be comma, semicolon, or tab
- Cell length exceeds max_cell_length setting — parsing error
- Malformed CSV (unclosed quotes, inconsistent columns) — parse failure
- Empty allowed_categories array with strict enforcement — all categories flagged
- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — request not processed
