## 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 pennyrail-ai-content-moderation-335de30c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run this user comment through AI moderation and tell me if it violates any content policies: 'You are all idiots and I hope you fail miserably'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a low-cost ($0.002 USDC per call), pay-per-use AI moderation check via x402 micropayment protocol — ideal for agents that need on-demand content screening without a SaaS subscription, or when integrating moderation into a blockchain-native or crypto-payment workflow.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed 'input' object returns a validation error
- Empty input object may produce undefined moderation results
- Payment of $0.002 USDC not provided triggers a 402 Payment Required response
- Service unavailability on Vercel infrastructure causes 5xx errors
- Ambiguous or very short inputs may produce low-confidence or inconclusive moderation results
