## 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-time-conversion-8a7352ef -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert 3:45pm Eastern Time to Tokyo time — I need the result in 24-hour format.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-use time conversion call within an automated agent workflow, especially when you want to avoid embedding a full datetime library or when operating in an environment where x402 micropayment billing is already in use.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unparseable input time string returns an error
- Unrecognized timezone identifier causes conversion failure
- Missing required 'input' field returns 400-level error
- Ambiguous time format without context may produce incorrect conversion
- Payment failure (x402) prevents endpoint execution
