## 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-weather-current-conditions-lookup-bb538659 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current weather conditions in Chicago right now — temperature, sky conditions, and anything else available?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, programmatic lookup of current (real-time) weather conditions and are operating in an x402 micropayment environment. It is best suited for agentic workflows that already handle x402 payment headers and need live weather data without a long-term API key subscription. Prefer this over forecast endpoints when only present-moment conditions are needed.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance causing 402 response
- Missing or malformed input object causing validation error
- Location not recognized or unsupported geography
- Upstream weather data provider unavailable causing timeout or 503
- Ambiguous or empty input object returning incomplete results
