## 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-url-domain-settlement-node-bb747939 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Submit the domain 'example.com' to the PennyRail settlement node for machine-readable processing — it costs a fraction of a cent via x402 micropayment.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically settle a micropayment (via the x402 protocol) tied to a URL domain string and receive a machine-readable response. It is suited for AI agent pipelines that need to unlock domain-gated resources for fractions of a cent in USDC. Prefer alternatives if you need human-readable output, bulk batch processing, or a domain lookup without a financial transaction component.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid or malformed input string may return a 400 Bad Request
- Missing required 'input' field in request body causes schema validation error
- Network or Vercel hosting downtime results in 5xx errors
- Domain string not recognized by the settlement logic may return an empty or error payload
