## 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-base32-decode-78bec6a7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Decode this Base32 string for me: JBSWY3DPEB3W64TMMQQQ — I need to get back the original plain text it encodes.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a simple, pay-per-call Base32 decoding function without managing your own infrastructure. Ideal for agents that occasionally need to decode Base32 strings (e.g. TOTP secrets, encoded identifiers, RFC 4648 payloads) without bundling a library.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid Base32 input (non-Base32 characters) returns an error
- Malformed or incomplete Base32 string with bad padding causes decoding failure
- Empty or null input returns validation error
- Truncated encoded strings may produce garbled or partial output
