## 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-uuid-v4-generator-5f4f73f6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Generate a fresh UUID v4 for me — I need a new unique identifier for a database record I'm about to create.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a server-side, trustworthy UUID v4 generation over client-side libraries — useful in constrained agent environments without access to native UUID libraries, or when you need an auditable, paid micro-transaction record of identifier generation. Suited for agents operating in sandboxed environments.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns 402 Payment Required
- Malformed input object may return 400 Bad Request
- Service unavailability on Vercel infrastructure returns 503
- Empty or missing 'input' field in the request body may cause a validation error
